Scots photographer captures epic shot of lightning over the Wallace Monument

A Scots photographer has captured the epic moment lightning lit up the sky above the Wallace Monument in Stirling.

Thomas Lamont, 33, snapped the picture at 8.45 pm on Sunday night as the thunder and lightning began. The IT worker from Falkirk, was standing in a field near the monument, in Stirling, hoping to capture drone footage of the storm.

He began to take the drone down as the storm approached - but luckily managed to capture the strike as it appeared above the monument. The keen photographer runs his own website where he shares all of his incredible photos, called the Kilted Photographer.
