Rhinns of Islay lighthouse from Lossit Bay

Picture of a lighthouse in the distance behind a bay and steep cliffsA different view of the Rhinns of Islay lighthouse. It looks like it is on Islay in this view, not on the small island of Orsay just offshore. The view is from the cliffs just north of Lossit Bay (you can just see a tiny stretch of the beach on the bottom left), looking across the bay and over the hills towards Portnahaven. If you look closely you can also make out Ireland on the horizon.
