Footprints in the soft sand of Kilchoman beach, Isle of Islay

A beautiful April morning on the west coast of Islay, blue skies and sunshine over Kilchoman beach and Machir Bay. It’s high tide, the water has come up fairly high. My footprints in the soft sand of the beach.

At low tide I like to explore the various passages and paths through and over the low cliffs at the southern end of Kilchoman beach.

A moody November morning on the west coast of Islay at the wreck of the Patti on Kilchoman beach. The low late morning sun provides some dramatic light over the water and the beach.
