This is an early view of the town of Tobermory on the Isle of Mull, taken from the Sound of Mull, which Wilson revisited on many occasions. When Wilson photographed the Falls of the Garrawalt in Braemar, Wilson’s friend and travelling companion, George Walker, suggested he take the photograph from four feet further back to ‘surround the view with an arch of greenery’. Wilson seems to have adopted this approach when he composed this photograph. The photograph was originally taken as a stereoscopic image and it shows foreground details including trees and branches to add depth to the image. These details enhanced the three-dimensional effect.
