There have been a lot of sailing ships going through the Minch over the last week or so. So far as I can work it out they are racing from Liverpool to Norway under the auspices of the Sail Training Association. All the vessels were many miles from land so decent photography was not an option. I did manage some photos with a combination of the little Canon and the spotterscope or using my Olympus with it's powerful zoom.
This one seems to be going the wrong way
When they started from Liverpool a week (or was it a fortnight) ago the crowds in the town centre and Albert Dock were apparently enromous! Princess Anne visited and the traffic was blocked for hours.
