Sannox Synchronicity: a day trip to Arran.


A day trip to Arran, a 30.7km paddle from Portencross and return by the Brodick/Ardrossan ferry. November 2009.


The approach to Glen Sannox on Arran from the Isle of Bute.

Dawn till dusk

A new dawn for Portencross castle

Queuing up the Clyde!

Crossing the bows of Dauntless

Approach to Sannox

Paddling under a cloud

A glimpse of winter sun

End of a winter's day on Arran

And then our boat came in, without chips!

    Douglas,

    Wonderful pictures again - superbly atmospheric and proving that "perfect" conditions don't always make the best pictures.

    all the best

    Ian
