One of the locks on the Crinan Canal in Argyll, water flowing over the gates. Somewhere in the Dunardry area I think. A great stop on a journey to/from Islay, always something to see somewhere.

The Crinan Canal is a nice stop during any journey to/from Islay, even if it’s only to watch a Mallard Duck and its five Ducklings.

A view from the beach at Port na Carraigh at the southern end of Islay’s neighbour Gigha. I don’t know if the burn running across the beach has a name (nothing on the OS map). Lots of stones, rocks and even boulders around, as well as seaweed and more. In the distance you can also spot Cara Island.
