Over the years I’ve taken quite a few pictures of dogs on Islay‘s beaches, so here’s another one. An excited dog running up to the camera, jumping up with joy and curiosity.

I’m not sure if horses and ponies can grasp the beauty of a bay and coastline, but they certainly seemed to enjoy grazing in the machair around Saligo Bay on the west coast of Islay.

A stunning April afternoon with clear blue skies on the west coast of Islay, looking south from a low angle at the northern end of Kilchoman beach in Machir Bay. The passenger in the plane high up in the sky on their way to cross the Atlantic must have been enjoying some great views over the west coast of Scotland.
