'SEILEBOST SUNSET I' . The last of the light over Seilebost, with Taransay keeping watch on the horizon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 . 🖨️ davebowmanphotography.com/featured/seilebost-sunset-i-dave-bowman.html . #photography #photographersunited #eastcoastkin #photographersofbluesky #scotland #seilebost #sunset #dailyphoto
