The Scotsman photographer Lisa Ferguson's "completely different" experience of the bridge, as she reaches 500ft above the Forth. 

Watch, read and be amazed, right here. 

That's it for today - just some "any other business" to clear up before the bell rings and we dance delighted out into the weekend.

Firstly, it would mean the world if you completed this small survey on our newsletters - what you like about it, what you hate about it, what we could change... Find it right here. 

Also, if you're a newsletter fan, and let's face it, who isn't, we have some absolute gems, including weekly updates from our Rural Affairs Specialist as she walks her way around Scotland.
