 The Gaelic word Machair refers to a fertile low-lying coastal plain. The Machair occurs only in the North-West of Britain and Ireland, and it is particularly prominent in the Outer Hebrides. The Machair, at Calgary on Mull is the span of land from the beaches to the area where sand encroaches on peat bogs further inland. Machair develops over time as calcareous sand is blown inland from the beaches and dunes by strong winds. The flora living on the machair is unique and it owes its origin to traditional grazing of cattle and sheep. The Machair faces threats from erosion resulting from rising Atlantic sea levels, and from the recreational use of beaches

This is interesting. I like the abstract pattern in the lower 2/3's of the image. The upper area doesn't add much IMO (except to make one scroll down to find the good stuff). :-)
