An overcast September late morning on Islay. A view from low down on Uiskentuie beach with Bowmore with the Round Church and the distillery in the background across Loch Indaal.

An overcast September late morning on Islay. A view from low down on Uiskentuie beach with Bowmore with the Round Church and the distillery in the background across Loch Indaal.

A view with a strong telephoto lens from near the top of Loch Indaal, near Bridgend. The view includes Bowmore harbour, Bowmore distillery and a bit of School Street (as well as parts of Islay High School).

It isn’t always sunny on Islay, sometimes it rains, sometimes it’s heavy low clouds hanging over the island for hours on end. Here seen from Ballitarsin on an October morning. You can still spot the Bruichladdich warehouses on the other side of the loch. Oh, and the next morning it was sunny again.
