Welcome to Scotland from the Roadside, a weekly gallery showcasing some of the best images from around the country taken by you.

From opportune moments shot on smartphones to breathtaking landscapes captured in high definition, each week we share a selection of interesting pictures taken by people on their travels around Scotland.

We've partnered up with the Scotland from the Roadside Facebook group, a popular destination for trading photos and stories, which has drawn in more than 100,000 members.

Each week, we ask the page's creators, Bruce Philip and Linda Curran, to select their favourite photographs.

From sapphire blue seas to sandy shores, this week photographers sent in their shots of Scotland's seaside views.

Sea stacks by Erin Garrett

"I visit the Isle of Lewis every summer but this was the first time I'd been to Garry Beach and thanks to my friend Magz for taking me," says Erin.

"It's now my favourite beach on Lewis. It's wonderfully deserted with sea stacks that are a pure work of art - and a sea cave with a natural emerald green ceiling and the most magical local legends ever."

Cullen beach by Lesley Murray

"This photo was taken earlier in the year on a walk along the beautiful beach at Cullen," says Lesley.

"I moved away from the area many years ago but always make a point of visiting this part of Scotland on my return as it is so peaceful.

"I feel we are really lucky to have been brought up in such a beautiful part of the world."

Lighthouse memories by Andy Hastings‎

"I took this while on holiday with my family at Silver Sands caravan site, Lossiemouth," says Andy.

"This is a special place that means a lot to our family. I was first introduced to this beach at the age of five and have returned countless times.

"Now 27 years on, I have many wonderful memories of time spent here and I continue to make new ones with my own children."

Drying the 'bathing suits' by Kristine Towers

"My daughter Clara Purdy took the picture," says Kristine.

"On our first time visit to Scotland from Canada, we enjoyed seeing family and exploring the beautiful land.

"This picture was taken by my daughter while on the hunt for a campsite on Islay in mid-June. We had dipped toes in Loch Ness and at the shore near Port Ellen so know how cold the water was."

Rosemarkie beach by Jazz Powell

"I have been staying with friends and as it was such a warm and sunny day we decided to go and visit Rosemarkie beach on the Black Isle," says Jazz.

"We walked to the rocks at the end of the beach just as the tide was coming in and took the photo to capture its beauty."

Waves at Pennan by Duncan Martin

"I have wanted to visit Pennan since first seeing it in Local Hero," says Duncan.

"I finally got there last year whilst on holiday and won't leave it as long to return in the future."

Sunset sea by Linda Curran

"This was last July when I had two of my grandchildren on holiday," says Linda.

"I had just got them in for supper and noticed this lovely sky and reflection. This one was taken on my mobile phone."

Coastal colours by Dot Roy

"I wasn't going to include this one as it wasn't sandy but I loved the colours," says Dot.

"I was at Clachtoll beach campsite on holiday for two weeks, our yearly trip, and my husband was fishing down by Split Rock.

"I just wandered along the coast a few yards with our daughter and noticed the colour of the sea. There are so many places in the area to take amazing photos."

Isle of Islay by Robin Morton

"I live on Islay and today was about the best we've had all summer," says Robin.

"This photo was taken from my drone."

Banff harbour waves by Reg Connon

"I live locally and it was a wild, windy day so I thought I might catch a few waves coming over the sea wall at Banff harbour," says Reg.

"To my surprise, a friend Paul was standing on the pier with his phone taking pictures so I thought it would make a good shot it's not as dangerous as it looks."
