A view taken while standing in the waves in Machir Bay as they roll out on Kilchoman beach. In front of us the rocks at Carraig Chomain, my sister Imke standing behind them to the right. We were on our way back after I had gone for a careful swim, as I was still in the wetsuit I decided to walk back in the shallow water and take a few pictures from a different perspective.
