A panoramic view over the southern end of Kilchoman beach under the steep crags,, seen from just above the dunes. Carraig Chomain just visible right of centre. Machir Bay in the background, stretching to the Atlantic on the west coast of Islay.

Arriving on Kilchoman beach on an April morning, the dunes creating deep shadows on the left, on the right my long shadow from the still low sun.

Possibly my favourite boulder in the world, the big boulder near Druimdrishaig at Loch Caolisport on the Kilberry Road. One of the most photogenic boulders in the world I suspect. Most definitely worth a stop on a journey to/from Islay.
