A panoramic view looking north up the Sound of Islay from below McArthur’s Head lighthouse at the southern end of the sound. Jura visible on the other side of the sound with one of the Paps of Jura (I think Beinn a’Chaolais) in the distance.

A memory from the Islay walking week in 2005 and an excursion to Jura on a beautiful sunny April day. We walked across Jura from east to west, this view is from near our destination, Loch Tarbert. One of the Paps of Jura (I think Beinn Shiantaidh) just visible in the distance on the left. Loch Tarbert on the right, just appearing behind the hills.
