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

A view from a ferry in the Sound of Islay on a sunny April evening, looking across some interesting currents in the water with Jura in the background.
