Picture of a night sky with thousands of stars over a coastline with beach, dunes and cliffsA beautiful clear November night in Saligo Bay on the west coast of Islay. Thousands of stars in the sky with the Milky Way just left of centre. Not entirely sure what the bright light left on the horizon is, I think it’s either a ship or Dubh Artach lighthouse. Also possibly a hint of northern light (the green hue) just above the horizon?
