Picture of a deep cut channel into a cliff with a single lone cloud aboveA view from the south west coast of Islay between Claddach and Lossit Bay. A channel cuts deep into the cliff, waves rushing in and out while a lone cloud is hanging overhead in the otherwise clear blue sky. Frenchman’s Rocks can just be seen in the distance on the left.

A view south along the coast just north of Lossit Bay on the west coast of Islay. I’m not 100% sure, but I think this is from near Dun Bhoraraig, Rubha na Faoileige on the right. Lossit Bay is behind the hills on the left. If you look closely you can just make out the Rhinns of Islay lighthouse in the distance on the left. Also Frenchman’s Rocks in the distance in the centre.
