A view over Machir Bay from Kilchoman beach in the gloaming just after sunset, looking south west. Admittedly you have to look closely, but then you’ll spot the half Moon high up in the sky. The crags and hills around Kilchiaran visible in the distance.

A view from the old radar station at Kilchiaran, looking down on some black cattle grazing behind the Kilchoman crags. The ruin of Kilchoman church just right of centre. Loch Gorm on the horizon.

A much calmer view compared to a picture of a wave rushing in I posted recently, the southern end of Kilchoman beach where the track up to Kilchiaran starts.
