A bright sunny morning on Islay, a panoramic view from Port Charlotte pier over Loch Indaal. Loch Indaal lighthouse on the left, the Paps of Jura in the haze in the distance.

A view of the centre of Port Charlotte from a drone above Loch Indaal. Shore Street in the front with the Port Charlotte Hotel on the right. Also Beinn Tart a’Mhill visible in the distance, the highest hill on the Rhinns of Islay.
