Another view from the departing plane taken by my late mother at the end of her last visit to Islay. The view goes along the Big Strand in Laggan Bay out towards the Oa penisula. The North Channel behind it, Ireland somewhere in the far distance under the clouds.

An overcast summer day in the south of Islay, a calm scene at the southern end of the Big Strand at Kintra. Some big rocks dotted around the beach with some water lapping up the beach.
