Evening walk at Loch Gruinart, Isle of Islay

Picture of a group of walkers approaching a sea loch in beautiful evening sunshineI took this picture during an Islay walking week a few years ago, on a beautiful evening with wonderful light we walked at Loch Gruinart. Here we are on our way across a field on the way to the shore. Look closely and you can see Killinallan and the dunes at Killinallan Point across the loch. In the distance also Mala Bholsa.

But there are indeed two walkers visible on the beach at Killinallan Point, walking along the entrance to Loch Gruinart. The dunes at Ardnave visible on the other side of the loch.
