Picture of a view over a sea loch to a lighthouse at dawnA very early morning (I think around 3:30) on Islay in June, the day before the summer solstice. The first light comes up in the sky, creating a beautiful tranquil view from Port Charlotte pier looking towards the Loch Indaal lighthouse and the Paps of Jura.
