The Corran Point Lighthouse at Ardgour, - an image from the archives.

The Corran Ferry near Fort William in Scotland, crosses Loch Linnhe at the Corran Narrows, travelling across to the Ardnamurchan Peninsula. It is a well used service and although only a short distance as the crow flies, the ferry saves a car journey of over and hour between Corran and Ardgour.

Here is David Gray and a song called

'As The Crow Flies'

Taken at the Mull of Galloway on a beautiful, hot day. On the left of the picture you can just see the foghorn and a small but very necessary fence leading down towards it

Best viewed large, I think. Thank you

Bell Tower

Ecobird has posted:

Captured at Port Logan, looking across to the pier and old lighthouse/bell tower. The three stage circular lighthouse tower with open light chamber to the third stage was built in 1818 and has been designated as a category B listed building. According to the Visit Scotland site the tower was designed by Thomas Telford.

Port Logan is a pretty village and was the location for the BBC series ' '2000 Acres of Sky,' and was used as a location in the film 'Keepers' starring Gerard Butler

All that aside it is just a pleasant place to sit and take in the view.

I have added a song by Robin Gibb called 'Saved By the Bell'
