OK, so I'm cheating, just a little. The subject of the current Round Robin Photo Challenge is Transportation, and a ferry is, indeed, one of my favorite forms of transportation ~ because the destinations that require ferry transport are my favorite destinations. Hence the first photo, of the ferry that runs between the Hebrides islands of Iona and Staffa.
The reamining images are of Staffa as one first sees it (it's actually much longer than it is wide); the volcanic rock formations that many visitors go to see, formations mirrored across the sea on Ireland and, therefore, the basis of a story involving a mythological Giant's Causeway across the Irish Sea; the most important residents of Staffa; and the seals who watched us come and go. Most of the photos enlarge reasonably well with a click.

Puffins and seals....! How wonderful! For me that would be the best part of the trip.
Thanks for sharing.
Peace, Virginia
puffins and seals would be so cool to see not in a zoo.
Ohhh... how beautiful! I love puffins, and the landscapes here are so dramatic! I think it's wonderfully apprepriate to show both the form of transportation and the wonderful sights found while riding it. :)

I enjoy riding the Ferry from Oakland to SF. It's a great way to relax. :) Cool puffins and seal. Well done!

Once again, amazing pics! I don't think I will ever tire of seeing them!!
Beautiful pictures, and what an awesome trip!
I liked the prow of the boat so much that I set it as my desktop background. Do I owe you any money?
Well, do you have a photo of your Coracle that I can use?

Such magnificent images, Robin. The dark moody coast behind the ferry...breathtaking! The ferry with the red accent against that background is begging to be painted.
Those puffins couldn't be real!
