Forth Road Bridge Sunrise: Stunning and rare photo shows Forth bridges silhouetted against the sunrise
A stunning photo shows the Forth bridges silhouetted against the sunrise- a rare shadow effect which only occurs twice a year.

Martin Brown, 52, captured the stunning and rare effect of the sun rising over the Queensferry Crossing, the Forth Road Bridge and the Forth Rail Bridge at 6.30am this morning.
Mr Brown went down to a beach near his home in Blackness, near Falkirk, during frosty weather to capture the view over the Firth of Forth.
Martin, dad-of-two, said: "There's two times a year when you can capture photos like this.
"It's when the sun comes back round and you can get an ideal shot on the horizon.
