Thousands of Scots have once again paid tribute to NHS staff and key workers for helping to keep the country running during the coronavirus pandemic.
People across Scotland took to their windows, doorsteps, gardens and balconies for a third time since the lockdown to thank those fighting the deadly virus.
'Clap for our Carers' took place at 8pm throughout the United Kingdom, as health staff and other key workers continued their amazing effort on the frontline.
It comes after a similar tribute was paid the last two week.
Last Thursday's effort also saw a number of pipers join in the public as part of the 'Pipe Up! for key workers'.
While others, like residents in Glasgow, naged pots and pans and cheered on come 8pm.
Nicola Sturgeon joined in the celebrations, tweeting : "Made it home in time tonight to join my neighbours in the #ClapForCarers.
