A few breaks in the clouds opening up over the Bay of Small Isles, seen during a November day trip to Islay’s neighbour Jura.

Some beautiful colours in the clouds during a sunset at Saligo Bay on the west coast of Islay. I love the contrast between the almost black low clouds and orange high clouds.

One of my favourite beaches on Islay and the most northerly beach on the island, Bàgh an Dà Dhoruis near Rhuvaal lighthouse. The raised beaches along the north coast of Islay are towering over it while Mull and Jura are visible in the distance.
