Westward Bound-A pictorial tour of Western Scotland



 I took a 15 day Island Rover Ticket with Caledonian McBrayne at the end of June 2009.
I visited Arran,the Mull of Kintyre,Islay,Oban,Mull,the Outer Hebrides and the Isle of Skye.
These are just a few of the many pictures i took.

Gracious thanks for the accompanying music by Moby goes to mobygratis dot com.
The two tracks featured are 'Look back In' from Album 18,and Blue Paper from the Album 'Hotel-Ambient'.

  1. An excellent set of pics you have returned with Jim. There seems to be a lot of sunshine present in the video.Are you sure you were in Scotland ?
    I even enjoyed the music :)

  2. Thanks Alex and Bob,two showers of rain in a fortnight-you're right it can't be Scotland !
    I see you've been down this end of the country recently-you guys get around.

  3. Of course any knowledgable folk will have spotted my deliberate mistake.The ferry leaving Brodick is heading for Ardrossan,not Oban.Eejit!

  5. Hi Bob or Alex,for this one i used Google's own Picasa3.
    I've been trying out a few free flash slideshows there's a decent one from ANVSOFT,and one with no protection at SWFCabin,but i use Picasa3 for most of my photo retouching and thought i'd give it a try.It's a pretty good programme.
