Picture of waves breaking over rocks, a rainbow in the distance A blustery April day in Port Wemyss, big waves are rolling in and breaking over the rocks. A rainbow can be seen in the distance just off the Oa.

Picture of a rain shower over a channel between two islandsIt was still nice and sunny on Islay when I took this picture, although if memory serves me right the shower here still seen over the North Channel caught up with us later. The view is from the Oa, somewhere between Port an Eas and Inveraval. In the distance on the left you can just make out Ireland.
