The wooden-built steam drifters "Loranthus" and "Daisy Bank" reaching the shelter of Lerwick harbour on a dirty morning, with a southerly gale blowing.  The "Loranthus" was built  in 1929 at Buckie, and owned by partnership headed by G A Smith of Portessie, while the "Daisy Bank", built in 1911 at Banff, was owned by Alexander Brodie of the same town.

The painting is 24 x 18 inches in size, and is in oils on canvas.  It was bought by a visitor to my studio late in 2009.
