A View from the Tower

A View from the Tower
An image resurrected from the archives (2013) in response to a memory jog by Keith
This is the view of the Sound of Mull from MaCaig's Tower, Oban which can be seen in the previous image.

The calmac ferry Isle of Mull is passing the island of Kerrera on the left and St Columba's Cathedral on the right as it enters Oban Bay.

Full screen is probably best

Vicente López García, Nouchetdu38, sunlight, and 26 other people have particularly liked this photo

Oooh, I said on your previous image that the view from up there would be fantastic, and it seems I was right...........it certainly is!

I love the light in t his beautifully composed shot Roger, especially where it is reflected on the surface of the water. The hazy sunshine over the distant hills is really gorgeous.

Wonderfully sharp and detailed throughout (particularly when viewed large) and the colour palette is lovely. Very well captured my friend
