Rum from Laig Beach on Eigg. #Sunset #Scotland #SmallIsles
@MikeBolam is that the singing sand beach?
@rpmr Yes it is!
@MikeBolam I made a recording of that beach many moons ago!
@MikeBolam the shapes of the waves and the top of the peaks echo each other, and the sunset’s wonderful. Lots of pleasure looking at this, keep finding more in it.
@T1Danna The waves are actually different colours of sand, that naturally form this pattern as the tide goes out.
@MikeBolam Oh my, does that mean there were a lot of different rock types and crustaceans present to create the sand? PS I’m not s geologist, just curious.
@MikeBolam or is it the shape of the wet, wind blown sand?
@MikeBolam fabulous thanks for sharing.
@MikeBolam Stunning shot Mike ! 👏🏼
@MikeBolam stunning! How warm/cold was it? And morning or evening?

And yes, it’s the singing sands beach - but it’s more of a squeak.
@debrastorr @MikeBolam it is quite squeaky, isn't it? But fun.
@MikeBolam Good grief that is wonderful!
@MikeBolam Hey, @RevJohn, this is the kind of view we could have had if we'd bought the island.
@iamalsoandy @MikeBolam well we properly missed out then didn't we? Drat!
@MikeBolam
Beauty everywhere to be seen but when sometimes a shot like this it becomes sublime
@MikeBolam Wonderful shot. I love those islands.
@MikeBolam spectacular colours, light and composition Mike
@MikeBolam Spent an Easter sailing up around there when I was younger. Got caught in a storm & took sanctuary in the harbour on Muck.
Eigg was lovely.
Then back to South Shian. In Creran early in the morning, seals swimming around boat & stags coming down to the waters edge. Absolute heaven.
@MikeBolam No idea how to follow you, but I love the pics; wonderfully calming.
@MikeBolam wow, beautiful sight and a fantastic photo
@MikeBolam I spent 2 weeks on Rum about 15 years ago for the "Sound of Rum" music festival. I definitely need to go back ❤
@MikeBolam Love the orange/blue split down the middle!
@MikeBolam heading there now. Lovely picture.
@MikeBolam incredible! Like looking through a completely clear sheet of finely sanded rock candy
@MikeBolam beautiful Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
@MikeBolam I'm working on sending two different clients to Scotland and Ireland in 2023. Next I have to book myself to get over there. :) #travelagent
@MikeBolam That’s a gorgeous pic!
@MikeBolam Spectacular beauty to start the day- thank you
@MikeBolam I would like to visit this place someday.
@MikeBolam wow, what a beautiful photo!
