    Scotlands Wild West Coast

    Driving down Kintyres west coast road towards Campbeltown the ocean is relatively calm, the Isles of Islay, Jura and Gigha affording the mainland protection from the ravages of the sea, but once past the Isle of Gigha the mainland get hit by the full force of the waves, this makes quite a magnificent sight when the wind blows in from the west wipping up the waves, yesterday was such a day, so I took the oppertunity to drive to Bellacantuy and try my hand at capturing a few photo's.
