I think I took this picture from Creag Bhàn, the highest hill on Gigha. The view is across the Sound of Jura to the Paps of Jura with the Islay ferry MV Isle of Arran en route from Port Askaig to Kennacraig on the mainland. How tiny the ferry looks below the towering mountains.

A beautiful panoramic June evening view from the Northern Loop path on the Isle of Gigha. The view is south west over Gigha with Islay (in the centre) and Jura with the Paps of Jura (to the right) visible on the horizon.
