The Calmac ferry MV Finlaggan arriving in Port Askaig on a nice June afternoon at the Sound of Islay. Seen from about half way up Port Askaig Brae. The Islay RNLI lifeboat trying to hide behind the trees on the right. My sister Imke was on the ferry, standing behind the lifeboat at the port funnel

A view from an Islay ferry over a temporary Jura ferry. The MV James was covering the Port Askaig – Feolin route in spring 2023 when the regular ferry was away for maintenance.
