A view from Kilchoman beach on the west coast of Islay on a sunny April afternoon. Just in front of us the remains of the wreck of the Patti, across Machir Bay the coastline stretching out to the south past Kilchiaran.

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.
