Colourful clouds during a November sunset over Machir Bay, Isle of Islay

One of the best sunsets I’ve watched from a Kilchoman beach for some time was this one in late November 2023. As the sun disappeared behind the horizon the clouds over Machir Bay lit up in some beautiful orange and red colours below the dark grey and black clouds. It didn’t last long, but was an amazing sight while it lasted.
