A view from an Islay ferry over a temporary Jura ferry. The MV James was covering the Port Askaig – Feolin route in spring 2023 when the regular ferry was away for maintenance.

A view from an Islay ferry on the way to Kennacraig. Jura on the horizon, below it a ship I had spotted earlier. After some picture searching I now believe it might be the Ronja Supporter.

A closer look at the huge boulder on the shore along the Kilberry Road. The famous Paps of Jura (and Corra Bheinn) in the distance across Loch Caolisport and the Sound of Jura. A great stop on a clear sunny day on the detour along the Kilberry Road during a drive to or from Islay.
