I’m not sure if this picture is of the sunset or the gloaming after the sunset, as the clouds on the horizon prevented me from seeing the sun setting. Just a few minutes before I could still see the sun above the clouds while walking through the dunes. Still, the colours in the sky and clouds were beautiful.

The sunset wasn’t the most exciting, but the gloaming after it turned out rather nice. Above the Saligo dunes some dark blue sky, out on the horizon over the Atlantic the distant clouds turned into a dramatic fire of reds and oranges. It didn’t last long, but looked amazing while it lasted.

A view down Rhu Road in Port Charlotte on the shore of Loch Indaal on a nice April morning. I believe the cut on the right is called Port na Ceasach (at least that’s what I take from the OS map). Laggan Point on the other side of the loch.
