David Elder of East Kilbride snapped the photo above at the Fort Augustus end of the loch, and he isn’t entirely sure what he snapped. All he knows is that it’s not likely to be anything mundane.
Quoth Elder: “We were at the pier head at Fort Augustus and I was taking a picture of a swan at the time,’ said Mr Elder, from East Kilbride. Out of the corner of my right eye I caught sight of a black area of water about 15 feet long, which developed into a kind of bow wave. I’m convinced this was caused by a solid black object under the water. The water was very still at the time and there were no ripples coming off the wave and no other activity on the water. Water was definitely going over something solid and making the wave.”
