A view back to Port Ellen around Loch Leodamais from a walk across the Ard to the Swan’s Pool in June 2025. Port Ellen marina and the pier with the grain silo in the centre. The maltings just visible in the distance towards the right.
That’s my sister Imke arriving on Islay for her June 2025 visit. We were lucky and she was the first foot passenger to get off, so I could take this picture of her emerging from the MV Finlaggan.
The Calmac ferry MV Finlaggan arriving in Port Askaig on a nice June afternoon at the Sound of Islay. Seen from about half way up Port Askaig Brae. The Islay RNLI lifeboat trying to hide behind the trees on the right. My sister Imke was on the ferry, standing behind the lifeboat at the port funnel
