June sunset at the Ardfernal Hill trig point panorama, Isle of Jura

A beautiful June evening on the east coast of Jura, on the top of Ardfernal Hill (85m) looking west. The Bay of Small Isles with Craighouse in the distance on the left. Towards the right the Paps of Jura with the sun setting behind Beinn an Oir and Beinn Shiantaidh, the two highest Paps. Not visible the thousands and thousands of midges attacking me while taking the pictures for the panorama…

A view north from somewhere half way up Beinn Dubh on the east of Islay. Islay on the left, Jura with the Paps of Jura on the right and the Sound of Islay between them. Taken during a beautiful sunny walk in April 2019.
