Some beautiful winter afternoon light on the west coast of Islay. Some nice waves rolling into Machir Bay, breaking as they approach Kilchoman beach. Spray is blown backwards high in the air by an easterly wind.

A view north on a mostly cloudy afternoon on the west coast of Islay. A good number of Barnacle Geese are flying west over Cnoc Mòr (82m) to land at the coast between Machir Bay and Saligo Bay. In the foreground the wreck of the Patti is sticking out the sand of Kilchoman beach.
