Watching incoming waves from some Saligo Bay rocks, Isle of Islay

Watching the waves in Saligo Bay can be challenging, as they can catch you out and give you wet feet or more. So for these I decided to try to avoid getting wet feet (again) and climbed on top of some rocks where I felt safe enough from incoming waves. Taken on a November afternoon on the west coast of Islay with clouds having moved in after a promising afternoon.

A November late afternoon on the west coast of Islay. An hour or so earlier it looked fairly promising for a nice sunset, but by the time sunset arrived clouds had moved in. Still a nice view with the dramatic clouds above the waves rolling into Saligo Bay.
