Cloudy June afternoon on the Saligo dunes looking over Saligo Bay, Isle of Islay

A cloudy June afternoon on the west coast of Islay, out and about exploring Saligo. This view is from the top of the highest dune, looking down south west over the beach and the southern end of the bay with waves rolling in and breaking.

A June walk up to the smaller outpost of the old Kilchiaran radar station (the main station is on top of the crags on the right). As it brightened up from an overcast morning my sister Imke captured this nice view past the crags over Kilchoman beach and Machir Bay. Saligo also just visible in the far distance.

Spotted at Saligo on an April late afternoon, one of the several horses in the area grazing in the dunes with the Atlantic and various cliffs in the distance.
