We're off to Barga once again. We have had a fabulous summer of weather in Orkney, and the flowers and inhabitants have bloomed in proportion.

| The Merlin, a favourite boat in Stromness harbour, one of the last of the traditional lobster fishing boats, skippered for 60 years by Willie Sinclair |
 |
| A field of barley lies ripe for harvest. For the afficionado, this no ordinary barley, but the ancient, 6-rowed variety, called "bere" in Orkney, and traditionally baked into bannocks |
 |
| Barbara with her Shetland cousin Morag, who was recently down in Stromness to play in the inter-county golf tournament |
 |
| The Thursday night dinghy racing - a good night for the photographer, not so good for the sailor! |
 |
| Somewhere, under the rainbow - Barbara's Japanese anemones standing proud beneath a late evening rainbow. We have had so many beautiful evenings. |
