Looking northeast from Tiree's highest point, Ben Hynish, across the village of Balemartine and the sandy beaches Tràigh Shorobaidh (on Sorobaidh Bay) and, beyond, the wonderful Tràigh Bhàgh. The view extends right across the island and in the distance is the more Isle of Coll, contrastingly lumpy compared with the flatness of Tiree.
