Campbeltown piper Willie McCallum was the overall winner of the Premier Grade section at the Captain John A MacLellan MBE Solo Piping Competition in Edinburgh.
Willie took home the Captain John A MacLellan MBE Trophy at the annual solo piping competition, held at the Army School of Bagpipe Music and Highland Drumming at Inchdrewer House earlier this month.
He won the aggregate prize after triumphing in the MSR competition and placing fourth in the Piobaireachd event.
Willie was not the only Campbeltown piper to take home silverware, with Sarah Muir winning the Open Hornpipe and Jig class, while Ross Conner placed fifth in the B Grade MSR contest.
Also flying the flag for Argyll, Inveraray piper Stuart Liddell won the Premier Piobaireachd competition, which gives him a place in the affiliated Captain John A MacLellan MBE Memorial Dinner and Recital Competition in 2024.
