This brightly-painted tanker certainly brought colour to a dull day in Scotland and, for further interest, was berthed port-side-to the terminal (= with her head east, towards Glasgow.)   Tankers usually are berthed starboard-side-to (= with the head west, towards Greenock.)

In the next image no doubt you notice the airliner above the tanker.   Rothesay Dock in Clydebank is essentially below the flight path for aircraft landing at the nearby Glasgow Airport, hence the aeroplane in the image.
