A view from a walk somewhere in the Bridgend area, an old drystone wall, some rough fields and the Paps of Jura in the distance.

A nice sunny view from Islay’s neighbour Jura, looking out over the Sound of Jura to Kintyre with Arran behind it. Taken during an Islay walking week walk across the hills to Loch Tarbert.

Boulders near Loch Tarbert, Isle of Jura

A memory from an Islay walking week walk across Jura, from Gatehouse to Loch Tarbert and back. This view takes in some boulders (with a small reservoir of water below them) towards the western side of Jura, Loch Tarbert just visible in the background.
