Just outside Salen on the Isle of Mull, two derelict fishing boats - Pavonia (built in Banff, 1955) and Elsie May (a prawn boat from Oban, late 1960s) - linger on the shoreline, abandoned when restoration plans fell through in the 1970s. A local reportedly acquired them for salvage but later abandoned the idea [TravelGumbo]. These haunting relics have weathered into silent, photogenic sculptures against the backdrop of the Sound of Mull, just a short drive from Craignure en route to Tobermory [TravelGumbo, Wikipedia]. Locals call it a photographer’s right-of-way - magical in the right light, but fading forever under the elements [TravelGumbo].
In my photograph the boats appear almost fused with the land, their shapes half-swallowed by time. The deep, moody colour palette emphasises that slow collapse – a sense that the tide has moved on but they’ve stayed behind. A striking piece if you're into storytelling through scenery.

Looking for a striking canvas set but worried about fading, sagging, or poor-quality materials? This premium three-panel canvas set is designed to solve these common frustrations, offering museum-grade quality that lasts a lifetime.
Each canvas starts with a 12-colour Giclée print on finely textured 400gsm artist-grade 100% cotton canvas, ensuring every detail is reproduced with outstanding clarity, rich colours, and deep contrast. Unlike cheaper alternatives, these canvases resist fading with a 100-year colour guarantee, so your artwork stays vibrant for decades.
Framed with European kiln-dried knotless pine, the canvas frames are built for strength and durability. A curved profile design minimises contact with the canvas face, preventing unwanted impression marks or surface cracking. Finger-jointed corners provide natural tension, helping to resist warping over time. For larger sizes, discreet wooden wedges are included, ensuring the canvas stays taut and allowing for easy re-stretching in future years if needed.
Each piece is hand-finished by experienced framers, ensuring perfectly smooth, tight folds on every corner. The 38mm deep frame adds a gallery-style presence to your space, while the three edge finish options - black, white, or image wrap - allow you to tailor the look to suit your style.
With effortless elegance and unmatched craftsmanship, these canvases are ready to hang, built to last, and designed to impress. Transform your space with art that stays as stunning as the day you bought it.
