The Great Pyramids of Ganavan

The Great Pyramids of Ganavan
A beautiful day at Greenacre Bay, Ganavan,Oban with the Isle of Mull visible in the background.
Note the Great Pyramids of Ganavan that look even more impressive when viewed on full screen:-)))))))
No bench today, but please do feel free to take a seat on the beach in the shade of the pyramids and enjoy the view and the peace.

I love the way your image is composed in layers, Carol. The colour contrast between the gold of the sand and the blue of the water and the sky is very effective, I hope you have a great new week. All the best, Joe

Very nicely captured these rare examples of the Scottish pyramid Carol. Of course, what you can see here is merely the tips of somewhat larger structures, buried by the sand of the beach over thousands of years!

Enjoy your day, Doug
