The Last Evening

Artist and friend Jan Yates, from Canada, makes the most of her last evening in Shetland. We met through a mutual love of art - Jan's being hands on with canvas and brush and mine being photography. The walk, in the company of Jan and my daughter, Victoria, was enriching, the ponies adorably friendly and the light positively glorious. This is the Shetland that visitors never want to leave and some ultimately return and settle. Jan will be returning next year for another visit as 'artist in residence'. She can't wait and neither can we.
