A view of the wreck of the Patti on Kilchoman beach on the west coast of Islay on a moody April morning. Some puddles remaining around the wreck after the tide had gone out, the Kilchoman dunes and crags in the background.

Spotted this phenomenon in the sky above Kilchoman on an April 2025 morning. I believe it’s called a sundog, but I’d be happy to be corrected if I’m wrong. The low morning sun was behind the hills to the right.
