A beautiful April sunset watched from Kilchoman beach on the west coast of Islay. A driftwood log rests in the sand of the beach, providing some additional interest in this view.

One of my favourite views on Islay, the view over Machir Bay and Kilchoman beach from the dunes at the southern end of the beach. It’s both familiar yet different every single time. The bay and the beach stretching out into the distance, the endless skies cloudy or blue, just an amazing view.

A beautiful April evening on the west coast of Islay, watching the sunset over the northern end of Machir Bay from Kilchoman beach. A tiny sliver of the sun just visible behind the horizon, disappearing within the next few seconds leaving only the beautiful light of the gloaming.
