A November late afternoon on the Rhinns of Islay, standing just below the Loch Indaal lighthouse. Behind the rocky shore we see Port Charlotte in the last light of the gloaming.

One of my early attempts to capture the night sky over Islay. Quality isn’t great, but in a way I still like it. Plenty of stars above the ruin of Kilchoman church, the bright spot just to the right of centre isn’t the Moon, but a bright star, I’m guessing Venus?
