A June evening at the southern end of the Rhinns of Islay, looking towards Portnahaven in the distance from the back road (Kilchiaran Road) on the western side of the Rhinns near Cladville (the farm is just out of view to the right). If you look closely you can just make out the Rhinns of Islay lighthouse on Orsay in the distance.
