Around the Harbours - Stromness. A new set of stock photos by Michaela Perryman Stromness is the second-largest town in Orkney, Scotland, and is located in the south-west of Mainland in Orkney. The name Stromness is derived from the Norse language. Strom refers to the strong tides that rip past the Point of Ness through Hoy Sound to the south of the town. Ness means headland. Stromness thus means headland protruding into the tidal stream. View more stock photography from Michaela Perryman here.
