The sunset wasn’t terribly exciting (notice the clouds on the horizon), but at least the gloaming as seen from Four Winds turned out rather nice with some beautiful colours. The view is north west with Lag Mhòr on the left and the Currie Sands at Claddach in the middle distance towards the right.

A different view of the Rhinns of Islay lighthouse on Orsay, here seen behind some rocks at the Currie Sands at Claddach. On the right you can also spot the foghorn.

A view north west from Four Winds, looking across to the small but beautiful Currie Sands at Claddach. The Atlantic stretching out to the horizon in background. Also notice the interesting wave splash on the rocks in the water, I believe caused by a wave rolling back from the main rocks.
