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.

Lunchtime on a sunny April day at Laphroaig distillery, two visitors enjoying a tea/coffee (and maybe a dram?) at the tables outside of the visitor centre. Nice views over the south coast of Islay included with the Oa in the distance.

A June evening walk north of Saligo, on the return leg I enjoyed this view of Loch Còrr and the Paps of Jura in the fading light at sunset.
