Foula is one of the UK's most remote inhabited islands.

Sitting alone in the North sea, west of the Shetlands, it is currently home to a population of 56 people.

Plus quite a few Shetland ponies.

Wow, such a hairy animal look so amazing and eye catching.

Shetland horses look like miniature and chubby horses.

Only 56 people, how remote. Shetland ponies definitely look like they are well adapted for the climate.

Nice picture, Timothy, these ponies remind me of Icelandic horses :) I wonder what life looks like in such a small community.

I'll post some photos of daily life on the island another day
