A driver miraculously escaped unharmed after a tree collapsed on to his car on a Perthshire road.
The tree landed on the vehicle on the B934 Perth Road, next to Kincladie Wood near Dunning.
It happened at 11am on Friday as Storm Eowyn was battering the area.
Dunning is subject to an amber alert for strong winds.
Due to the condition of the car, there were grave concerns for the welfare of its driver.
Its rear windscreen had been smashed, and large branches from the tree encompassed the vehicle.
But no emergency services were called out as the driver emerged unharmed.
A post on Facebook by Findony Farm, which is run by businessman Simon Howie, said: “We will send telehandler to clear the branches.
“Hopefully road will be open soon.
“Car was left running so will drive out of the way.”
The farm later posted the tree had been cleared and road reopened.
The driver declined to comment on his experience, but posted on Facebook it was a “flashing in front of your eyes” moment, and that the vehicle was being recovered.
Power outages have also been reported in Dunning and a fence at the village’s tennis club has blown down.
