Waves, Kintyre, Arran and the Moon from an Islay ferry

A view from a ferry to Islay in April 2024, looking back to Kintyre with the hills of Arran behind. The waves from the ferry spreading, while if you look closely you can spot the Moon up in the sky.

A view from the Kilberry Road along Loch Caolisport, Eilean Tràighe off what I think is a tombolo. If you look closely you can make out one of the Islay ferries on the horizon.
