Mellon Udrigle is my absolute favourite beach on mainland Scotland I find its reddish sands, turquoise seas and the inevitable glowering grey skies totally inspiring. As luck would have it the indigo march of the Inverpolly mountains provide a wonderful backdrop to the gentle chaotic motion of the sea as it retreats over the delicate pink sand. Simply by watching and counting the seconds between successive breaking waves I was able to figure out the best exposure for my anticipated shot.
