MV Eilean Dhiura in the Sound of Islay

Spotted from the much bigger Islay ferry, the small Jura ferry MV Eilean Dhiura crossing the Sound of Islay. If you look closely you also just spot Rhuvaal lighthouse in the distance. Not to mention Colonsay and Oronsay on the horizon.

A view from the track to Oronsay farm and priory, looking over to Islay (towards the right) and Jura (towards the left). Eilean Ghaoideamal in the mid distance. If you look closely you can just make out Rhuvaal lighthouse at the far northern end of Islay right in the centre of the picture.
