Waiting for the Ferry at Tarbert

This photo of a shag enjoying the rain in East Tarbert harbour was taken while Emma and I were waiting for the ferry to Uig on Skye. The rain somewhat blurs the photo, but I'm very pleased with the way it came out, given that about 10s after shooting this frame, the car in front started to move and I had to leap into the car to get on the boat!

The boats you can see are Angus Cambpell's Orca II in the background and on the right of the picture (sadly not completely in the frame) is Seumas Morrison's Enchanted Isle. Both boats run cruises out to St Kilda to the west of Harris.

Taken with my Fujifilm HS10, ISO 100, f/7.1, 1/30s
