Rihanna has taken to the stage to headline the second day of "the perfect festival".
Tens of thousands of music fans turned out to watch the R&B singer on the main stage of T in the Park at the Balado airfield near Kinross.
Crew members could be seen preparing the stage ten minutes after the time she was scheduled to start and six minutes later, a large video wall was lifted to reveal Rihanna wearing a short length, long-sleeved, tiger-print dress to a loud, cheering reception from the crowd.
"There are about 90 people on the road with her and they've all got jobs to do so it's one of the biggest productions ever to be brought to T in the Park," said festival director Geoff Ellis.
Emma Reid, 19, a student from Erskine in Renfrewshire planned to conclude her day by watching Rihanna who she has seen twice before. She said: "She puts on an amazing show, the whole thing is really impressive."
But her friend Nicole McKinnell, 20, from Glasgow was less interested in Rihanna. She said: "I don't think its just about just one person. I like a lot of different styles of music and like to see as many as possible."
Organisers produced a varied line-up for the Saturday night of the festival's 20th anniversary including Snoop Dogg, Paloma Faith, Ke$ha and Twin Atlantic.
Scottish band Frightened Rabbit played T in the Park tonight for the third time in their career, lead singer Scott Hutchison saying: "As a Scottish band you just want to play T in the Park. It's a big benchmark.
"The fact that T in the Park provides both ends of the spectrum I think is fantastic.
"You've got Rihanna on the one end and then you've these new exciting Scottish bands on the other."
Although slightly colder than yesterday, Saturday was another warm day at the Balado festival.
Mr Ellis said: "It's the perfect combination of a fantastic line-up, beautiful weather and the best festival audience in the world. If you put those three things together you have got the perfect festival.
