Scots across the country have shared their images of Scotland's fiery skies, as the first day of March comes to a close.
It follows a February that saw some of the lowest temperatures of the UKโs winter season.
Cold conditions from the east brought temperatures down to -23C at Braemar in Aberdeenshire on February 11, the lowest temperature in the UK since 1995 and the lowest in February since 1955, according to the Met Office.
But after a day of spring sunshine, Scots are now heralding in the springtime with pictures of the most incredible sunsets in Glasgow, Stirling, Argyll, Ayr and elsewhere.
Did you catch a glimpse of the flaming red sky where you are?

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.ย
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience forย our loyalย readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.ย
That is invaluable.ย
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalistโs job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
