We spent a weekend with friends in this old (though modernised) house a few weeks ago and this was our bedroom. The view from the bed out the window overlooked Fox Island where, I have been told by older people in my family, a direct ancestor lived in the late 1600s or early 1700s. According to the story, he died a suspicious death, having been found dead at the bottom of the cliffs. I was reading when I noticed the view and took this picture with the iPad. It isn't a really subtle camera so I had to increase the dark areas to get any detail there at all. I took advantage of that editing to do a little more local contrast and to build the border. This is a tiny version of the slightly larger original. I understand the geological term for such an island, joined by a beach to the mainland, is a tombolo.
