Islay from Space

A reader just asked me for a picture or map of Islay from space she had heard I had.

Unfortunately the resolution for the images of Islay (and the surrounding islands) isn't as good as it is for a lot of urban areas in the UK, so you won't be able to zoom in on individual houses, but you can still make out quite a few things.
