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.
