What's better than a sunny day? Well for me a day with heavy showers and sunny spells is the ultimate kick when I'm on Islay. So many photo opportunities, ever changing and sometimes very threatening skies, rainbows and beautiful reflections on the lochs. With Loch Indaal in the heart of the island there are always good opportunities to catch these breathtaking moments from mother nature.

Ever look up at the sky and notice how transient and temporary the clouds are? They move around so easily when the wind blows. They change shape and size so quickly and so often, before you know it, you are looking at a totally transformed cloud. They also often breakup and join together making the new and the old indistinguishable. Smoke moves the same way, although usually at a much quicker pace

The Unspeakable is forever unshaped
It is not to be spoken of in words
And therefore none can control it.
If leaders would harness it
All things would follow,
Everyone’s self would join nature,
And heavens would dew and rain justice.
The Unspeakable is shaped by use,
Then everything must have a name,
But then the shape is [...]
