After a beautifully sunny day a few clouds gathered from the west to make this sunset quite spectacular. We aimed towards Machir Bay but upon reaching a high point overlooking Loch Gorm we decided to go no further and settled down for almost an hour of Nature’s artistry.

Thank you Keith!

The beach below is Tràigh Bhàn, just above it you’ll find one of the memorials for the Exmouth disaster. Picture courtesy of my sister Imke, taken during one of our Islay walks in June 2013.
