Views towards Ward Hill and Cuilags, Orkney


The pictures were made from the mentioned OS-map locations. Then the pictures were resized to the same scale and then the highest point of Ward Hill (hill on the left) was positioned at the same point in the picture. The hill on the right is the Cuilags. The pictures are used in the study of the reappearing sun at Orkney Mainland.
