Somewhere around half way up the Kilchoman dunes, a view south(ish) over Kilchoman beach on the west coast of Islay. It is around low tide, so the water is out revealing a wide beach. In the distance towards the left the old chain link radar station (now also home to some modern telecom equipment) on the top of the crags.
