This picture shows a boat sitting on the sandy banks at Brodick Bay in the Isle of Arran.
In the background is Goatfell (sometimes Goat Fell or the Scottish Gaelic Gaoda Bheinn), one of four mountains on Arran classed as Corbetts or hills between the height of 2,500 and 3,000 feet.
Goatfell is 2,866 ft and its name is thought to mean either 'Mountain of Wind' (from the Gaelic gaoth) or 'Goat Mountain' (from the Norse geita).
