| My first climb up Malcolm's Head this year. Always leaving me breathless, then a breathtaking reward. The stark beauty of Fair Isle. |

 |
| At the top of Malcolm's Head you find two ruins, both coastal look out observational huts. one from WW2 the other from the Napoleonic Wars. |

| One of the old structure's walls, with an approaching hail storm. |
 |
| This rainbow was actually pea size hail. Which I was shortly after this picture caught in. Ouch! no place to hide! |
 |
| Hail hail! |
 |
| I would say it is a bit windy-er up there! |
 |
| The setting Sun was in and out of the clouds creating great light and colour. |
 |
| My hat blows off much easier with long hair. I never had this problem with a short buzz cut. But I do like the feel of wind in my hair again, even if I have much less of it. |

| The hail storm passed over and blocked the Sun, making it go so dark the Lighthouse came on early. What a great walk, always a wonder when I wander. cheers. Happy New Year! |
