The end of another year, another bunch of pictures, a lot of blood, sweat and tears. To round off this year I have picked Aidan’s School Christmas Concert. One of very few December 2007 photographs I have. Singing to the best of his ability, front row, far side (without the hat).

November 2007 – Spooked Siskin
I was walking to the car when I nearly stood on this little guy. He flew over to the wall and I managed to grab my camera from its bag and snatch a shot just as he was flying away.
October 2007 - Scalloway
We were just leaving Scalloway and decided to pull over to get a couple of photos of the sunset. I think it was worth it. Scalloway Castle can be seen dominating the centre of the photo.
September 2007 – West Voe sunrise
This photo was taken at 0630 looking out towards West Voe and Grutness as the sun was beginning to rise. The sky was filled with colour. A truly amazing sight and the photo doesn’t do it justice.
August 2007 – Peek-a-boo
This photo was taken at the Ness of Burgi, an Iron Age defensive blockhouse.
July 2007 – Peerie Spiggie again
Yep, it’s time for another photo taken at Peerie Spiggie on a fine summers night.
June 2007 – Fitba’ Crazy
2007 has been a tricky year to choose photos from and June was no different. I thought I had better include one of Aidan playing for Ness United though. Here he is going in for the kill.
May 2007 – Beach Boy
This was an easy month to choose which photo to use. This is possibly the favourite picture I have ever taken. We were at Spiggie Beach just as the sun was going down, casting a lovely light over Aidan.
April 2007 – Meal Beach, Burra
Back in the UK again, Aidan and I took a run to Burra so I could take some photos. Here we have Aidan on Meal Beach looking towards the horizon. For what I am not entirely sure.
March 2007 – Ahoy, Captain!
Here we have Aidan piloting The Belfast out of Russell Harbour in the Bay of Islands. We managed to catch some lovely fish that was barbecued later that night.
February 2007 – New Zealand Trip
February 2007 saw us setting off for New Zealand on holiday. This picture was taken in Auckland on the day we arrived. The bar at the end of this wharf sold some very nice chilled beer!
January 2007 – Up Helly Aa
For those of you that don’t know, Up Helly Aa is a fire festival held on the last Tuesday each January in Lerwick, Shetland. Each year a galley is built and then ceremoniously burned by several thousand men throwing torches into it.
