Landing at Sumburgh

The evening flight from Inverness and Kirkwall coming in to land at Sumburgh. They say that Sumburgh is one of the most difficult airports to land at and this way in is not commonly used unless the wind is from the North. The first time you come in from this direction and look out the window to see the hillside above you can give you a bit of a shock.

I've been looking for this shot for years and was not expecting it as I thought the westerly runway would have been used so didn't have the lens I wanted although it was in the car. Never mind give me an excuse to head for Sumburgh some other time.
