Bring stunning panoramic photography into your space with this high-quality 15" x 5" Salen Boat Ruins print, designed for exceptional detail and longevity.
Printed on lustre photographic paper, it features a semi-matt finish with a subtle, speckled sheen that minimizes glare - ideal for bright rooms or spaces with direct lighting.
Includes a 1/4-inch white border for a refined, ready-to-frame presentation.
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].
To me, the angle in my photograph feels almost cinematic – like the opening frame of a film where nothing good ever happens. The tones are heavy, the sky feels close, and the boats seem to be waiting for something that never came. A perfect print if you like your landscapes with a bit of mystery and mood.
