Who Are the Selkies? History and Myths from Celtic Folklore
🌟 Discover the legend of the Selkies, mythical creatures from Celtic tradition, who live as seals but can transform into humans. 🌟
In this video, we explore the myth of Selkies, popular in the traditions of the Orkney and Shetland Islands. These fascinating creatures dwell in the cold waters of the ocean and transform into beautiful humans when they shed their seal skins. We’ll discuss how these mysterious beings have influenced Celtic legends and folklore, and the longing for the sea that drives them to leave behind human loves and families.

🇬🇧 The highlight of our visit to Orkney was Skara Brae - Europe's most complete Neolithic village, that was occupied from 3180 BC to 2500 BC! 🇧🇬 Безспорно най-интересната част от посещението ни на островите Оркни беше Скара Брей - най-добре запазеното неолитно селище в Европа. . . . #шотландия #оркни #skarabrae #stromness #orkneys #orkneyislands #orkney #orkneyisland #orkneyisles #visitorkney #unlimitedscotland #hiddenscotland #discoverscotland #visitscotlandnow #neolithic #worldheritagesite #scottishcollective #scottishscenery #scotlandisnow #scotlandphotography #scotland_greatshots #scotlandlove #scotland_lover #scotlandsites #scotlandtravel #scotland_ig #scotshots #scotland #scotlandtrip #scotlandexplore (at Skara Brae) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB5u__BDDPX/?igshid=d07gf34hn13d

What can you see On the horizon? Why do the white gulls call? Across the sea A pale moon rises The ships have come to carry you home And all will turn To silver glass A light on the water All Souls pass Into the West #scenery #scottish #scotlandphotography #scotland #churchillbarriers #orkney #orkneyislands #shipwreck #sea #ocean #hazy #bluesky #silverglass #lordoftherings #landscapephotography #water #horizon #insta_scotland #island (at Orkney Islands) https://www.instagram.com/p/CS7OWHbLEwT/?utm_medium=tumblr

These are from brief two of the Digital Imaging unit. I took all of the photos in Aberdeen (apart from the third one) and created the designs in Photoshop 🏢
The first image was my final design and the photos from the third design were taken in Orkney throughout the years.

If you'd like to try a non-sherried Orkney single malt, Scapa is at your service. Apple and pear is foremost on the nose of this Gordon & MacPhail bottling, followed by honey. The first sip is salty, as island malts should be, but then the honey fights its way forward. Grab a bottle and head for the sea! . . . #scapa #theorcadian #gordonandmacphail #independentbottling #orkney #orkneyislands #orkneysinglemalt #islands #singlemalt #scotch #whisky #whiskey #aquavitae #uiscebeatha #uisgebeatha #whiskyaesthetic #womenwhowhiskey #whiskywithaview #pnw #oregoncoast #newportbau @scapawhisky @gordonandmacphail @whiskywithaview (at Englund Marine Supply) https://www.instagram.com/p/B62CVhunrx7/?igshid=42fph6c9kzym

A very interesting discovery in a site we went by with Viking Cruises on our Into the Midnight Sun Ocean cruise. This is a huge find and one that can impact history, especially concerning the Vikings! #vikingcruises #vikingoceancruises #myvikingstory #vikingsun #scotland #orkneyislands (at Orkney) https://www.instagram.com/p/B032-OHojQw/?igshid=1t1lb7yfkk89i
