A traditional Gaelic song from the voice of the seal people or selkies. Creatures who were said to shed their seal skin and take on the human form at certain times of the year. Creatures who moved between the parallel worlds of sea and land, but never truly belonging to either. I learned this from the singing of the Rev William Matheson of North Uist/Edinburgh.

Sharing today this stunning piece of filming by Mike Guest Photography who says:

‘The energy i get from the sea is hard to explain. I often feel like I'm part human part selkie the Scottish name for a seal.

I’ve been listing to this track on loop for days now and was humming it as I went into the water. There are so many parallels that relate to my life my work and the way i relate to the word. For now, i can't express it in any more words, but today's film is a reflection of that feeling for you”.

We hope you like it, please feel free to share widely and let us know what you think. Hope this brings you all a moment or two of calm.

Much love,
