People across Scotland flocked to parks and beaches as the easing of some lockdown restrictions coincided with a weekend of glorious weather.
The new rules allow Scots to sunbathe and meet friends or family from one other household outdoors for the first time in months - as long as they do so in groups of up to eight people, and keep at least two metres apart.

South Beach at Troon was a popular destination on Sunday as people basked in the sunshine in Ayrshire
Loch Lomond
Sunbathers were also out in force in Luss, on the shores of Loch Lomond, in the sweltering temperatures on Saturday
Barbecues and picnics were also on the agenda in the parks around the loch

St Andrews
