 On the way home we stopped to visit Duncan's brothers. One of them lives in Arisaig, the other was camping in the area. Snapped this picture of the bay beside the campsite.

Took a wander round the Art in Nature walk at Calgary today.  
Water feature - hanging aluminium casting by Patrick Elder.
 
 
No idea if this is one of the art pieces, and if it is, what it's called or who it's by. Woven ball nestling in the crook of a tree.
 
 Three Ravens by Andy Mortley and Matthew Reade. The ravens are carved elm, and the branches are forged steel.

 View along one of Mull's wonderful roads.I think this is the B8035. Yes, it's single track. No, there's nowhere to go on either side of you,unless you find a passing place. Luckily, all those we met on this road did know what to do in that situation. Unlike on some of the other (equally narrow) roads...

 Most of the day was very wet, but about 8pm the scky cleared and we got some sun. Went out for a walk. View across the Sound of Mull to the mainland.

 Playing with shutter speed; long exposure time to try to get blurring on the falling water. Didn't quite work out.

 Thought I'd better take a picture of a peony flower before they were all over.

 In the back garden this afternoon, I caught this honey bee on a broom flower. This is a detail cropped from the original picture.
