The Queen of the Isles


Westray, which enjoys the regal title of 'The Queen of the Isles', is the second largest of the North Isles of Orkney. This aerial photograph of Pierowall, where the ferry departs for nearby Papa Westray, was taken by the late Adrian Warren. He died on 5 June 2011, aged 61, and some of his work and achievements are commemorated on the website of Last Refuge Ltd, his small company dedicated to the support of endangered environments and species through films, images and research. It also specialises in aerial photography and filming.
