Shoreline Perspectives


This shoreline shot, taken by Martin Padget on a Vatersay beach, makes the fishing equipment resemble rocks. It symbolises a return to nature. Yesterday's issue of The Herald carried a piece about excavations on a site for new houses revealing the extent and scale of prehistoric homes up to 6000 years ago. How did these early residents of Oban Bay regard the islands beyond? Were they the subjects of adventurous dreams or of an accepted horizon?
