Hi Guy

If as I suspect that this is Mull then you've done very well. The light is lovely, it has a wonderful tranquility to it, the sort of morning where you can hear otters splashing about or crunching crab shells, and the colors/tones are beautiful. Good use of space and a well controlled exposure. Lastly the blues and yellows, of course, compliment each other superbly. Its all good
