November afternoon in the Sound of Islay

A view from the departing ferry, looking down the Sound of Islay towards Kintyre. McArthur’s Head lighthouse in the distance on the right.
Dolphins from the Islay ferry in Port Askaig

Not the greatest picture, but unfortunately I only had a small camera with me and the light was fading rapidly on a late November afternoon. While waiting for the ferry to leave these four Dolphins showed up right below on the starboard side (the side facing the Sound of Islay while berthed). They were constantly on the move, changing direction, jumping, turning, you never knew where they would show up next. A great show which lasted for about 10 minutes I estimate.
