Skies above Scotland were awash with colour on Monday as the Northern Lights danced in a dazzling display.

On Monday evening, a number of Scots had a front-row seat to the Aurora Borealis which saw the heavens beam with green and pink light.

The evening was made even more special as it marked the peak of the Perseids meteor shower, which can produce up to 100 shooting stars an hour.

The Perseids are caused by debris from the comet Swift-Tuttle, which Earth passes through each year.
