Picture of a church and a Celtic cross under a moonlit night sky with starsA bright November night on Islay at Kilchoman. While there were quite a few clouds around they also broke up at times for a bright night sky with many stars. The almost full moon provided some light on the ruin of Kilchoman church and made for a bright sky.
