Storm Babet has brought another day of high winds, heavy rain and flooding to parts of Scotland

A second Met Office red warning was in place parts of Angus and Aberdeenshire on Saturday.

The weather brought spectacular scenes to coastal areas, as others faced the flooding clear up after rivers burst their banks.

Here is a selection of images from different parts of the country this weekend.
