Just a plain view of the beach, the wreck of the Patti and some small waves breaking on the beach. I still like the calmness in it.

At low tide some deep cuts into the cliffs at the southern end of Kilchoman beach are accessible on foot. This is one of them in the November afternoon hazy sunshine. A burn running down the Kilchoman crags is flowing through it towards Machir Bay.

A sunny November moment on Kilchoman beach on the west coast of Islay. Nice waves are rolling into Machir Bay, breaking as they reach the beach. Spray is blown backwards by an easterly wind.
