Rounding the dunes entering Kilchoman beach, Isle of Islay

A November morning on the west coast of Islay, arriving on Kilchoman beach after walking over the dune path. Walking out on the beach and rounding the dunes the view opens up to the south, over to the crags with the old radar station at Kilchiaran.
