Just been having another look at the shot from the aircraft - that's a grand little peep you get when you're sailing south and just for a moment or two you can look southwards right through the bridge

Might sound a daft question, but, is that Oban in the second pic Ian?
Only been there once, on the ground, :lol:

Aye Nick certainly enjoyed these piccy's its amazing when you see spots that you love from above. An whole new perspective on the scene.

I was wondering if you took them while flying over in the seaplane to Oban.
We can't change the direction of the wind, but we can adjust our sails.

OK, so my waistline reduction hasn't been quite as dramatic as yours, but frankly I think that is going a bit far. I would have perhaps used the word 'graced' myself.

No Dave, Booby Trapper took them from a helicopter - but brother Tim keeps a microlight at North Connel and I am hoping to be able to get some more good snaps of the local area from the air at some point - watch this space.
