A view from outside one Islay distillery to another Islay distillery. Standing on the beach just below Bowmore distillery the view goes across Loch Indaal to Bruichladdich with Bruichladdich distillery. The new warehouses on the left, the distillery with the older warehouses just right of centre.

The counterpart to the starry night sky over Ballitarsin, the view out over Loch Indaal from it. Plenty of stars up in the night sky, you can just about make out the Milky Way. The lights of three villages in the distance, Bowmore and behind it Port Charlotte on the left and Bruichladdich on the right. A car driving past lighting up the single track road below. Something I’d usually avoid in a starry night picture, but I think here it enhances it.
