A beautiful memory from a November afternoon walk on Kilchoman beach on the west coast of Islay. After a bright sunny start clouds started to move in, changing the light to a more mellow and mild tone while retaining the strong reflections on the water. Spray and mist rising from the water adding to the mood, enhancing the milder tones.

A look back during a November walk on Kilchoman beach on the west coast of Islay. My footprints stretching out in the distance, snaking along the beach as I was avoiding the incoming waves and enjoying the views and sunshine.
