Sunrise at 4.15am one June morning at the Vat of Kirbuster on the island of Stronsay. I camped about 100m from this spot on a grassy cliff top. I can't believe how that notch in the natural arch is aligned perfectly with the rising sun - lucky! This view was fleeting as the sun soon disappeared behind the cloud.
