The entrance to Rothesay Harbour

The bow of the CalMac ferry MV Argyle just showing on the right. To the left of the entrance a mast stands showing three red lights vertically - the signal that boat movements in and out the harbour are forbidden while the ferry manoeuvres. The neat arrangement of large boulders on the left foreground hides water-board sewage overflow storage tanks.
