OBAN Winter Festival began on Friday and, now in its sixth year, it has firmly established itself among the highlights of the calendar in Argyll and the West Highlands.
There are numerous events arranged across the town over 10 days, including food and drink events, craft fairs, whisky tasting, haggis hurling and a parade this Sunday that culminates in a finale at Stafford Street.
I’d urge everyone to embrace the festival, including our photographic competition. It’s open to all amateur snappers and we’d love to see all your images taken during the festival. There’s a great prize of £150 in Argos vouchers, so get your cameras out.
