Sunset at Kilchoman, Machir Bay, Islay

A view over Kilchoman Beach and Machir Bay just before sunset from near the Kilchoman Military Cemetery. The Kilchoman Crags on the left, the shoreline stretching south into the distance. Below us the dunes, hiding a large stretch of the beach. Note that the sheep seemed to mainly gather in the sandy parts for the night. Further right the northern stretch of the beach comes into view. Cnoc Mor (82m), then Saligo Bay behind it. Dun Bheolain in the distance. A glimpse of Loch Gorm on the far right end of the panorama. This was at approx 21:45 (9:45pm), isn't the late evening light beautiful?

You can navigate by pointing your mouse over the panorama and moving it while pressing the mouse button. You can zoom in/out with the +/- controls just under the panorama. Some areas in the panorama are hotspots, if you move your mouse pointer over them a short explanation will show in the status bar of the panorama window.
