Midnight in Shetland. 💙 This is Simmer Dim. ~ As a Shetlander you grow up knowing about Simmer Dim, as a bairn it meant you could stay out and play longer, or stay awake that little bit later cos it was so light outside. ☺️ It’s such an important part of the year as it marks the longest day, and in Shetland that’s almost 19 hours of daylight meaning it never really gets dark! 🥳 ~ It’s such a special time, and Shetland feels alive with seabirds 🪶, tourism 🧶, festivals 🎊 and a general buzz for the longer days, I think it’s because we’ve all endured the long, dark winter beforehand. 🌌 ~ Pictures taken at midnight at the lodberries at Bains Beach. 🤍 ~ Shetland, you really are something else and you’ll always be my home. 🥰 xx Ad #PromoteShetland #inspiredbyShetland #ShetlandTrueNorth
