An afternoon of more prints of Islay..
As mentioned in my previous post the weather was challenging today, so after a visit to Bowmore an afternoon of experimenting with textures in monoprints from photographs taken during the week. Apologies for the poor photos lighting was an issue today!
Barnacle geese at Bowmore
The weather forecast was abysmal and the weather lived up to expectation ...so into Bowmore ...where even the barnacles were reluctant to get up!

Machir Bay and an armoured bullhead!
As always superb reflections on acres of sand...found an armoured bullhead washed up which we were able to return to the surf to hopefully fight another day.

Beinn Bheigier (Ben Vicar) from Claggain Bay, Islay.
An unbelievably dry and sunny day with no wind, so down to park at Claggain Bay to go up Islay's highest mountain - Beinn Bheigier, 491m. Followed the newly constructed track before passing through the deer fence onto the fell. A visible path leads up onto to a first peak - mainly molinia and heather - and then onto the lovely broad ridge. Lots of nice arctic/alpine flora and the most fantastic views all round the island.

Kilinallan and beyond ...
What a glorious sunny, but cold day. Fortunately the wind wasn't too bad so a good 18 miles along the coast past Kilinallan and Gortantoid. Spectacular views of Ben More and north to the snow-covered mainland.
