A nice view of Saligo River in full spate on a nice November day, looking splendid as it runs over the rocks as it approaches Saligo Bay (not in view, behind us)

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?
