Loch Ness Monster 'caught on camera' ahead of largest hunt for beast in 50 years

Another sighting has been made of Nessie, and has been registered on the Official Register of Loch Ness Sightings.
It comes just as the largest hunt in 50 years for the elusive beast gets underway

'The Loch Ness monster has allegedly been spotted by an astonished holidaymaker.
Steve Valentine was on a family boat trip in the Scottish Highlands Loch, near Inverness, when he saw a mysterious
black shape in the water. The most likely explanation for his sighting last Wednesday (August 17) appears to be the
Loch Ness monster, affectionately known as Nessie.

The shocked Mancunian, of Urmston, Greater Manchester, would now be the fourth credible sighting of the both feared
-and-beloved beast of Scottish folklore in 2023. Steve managed to quickly get a picture of the unworldly sight - before
the spooky black shadow instantly vanished. Steve and his family were enjoying a Nessie-themed trip on the Deepscan
vessel, which carries 12 people into Loch Ness - the largest lake in the UK - to learn about the mythical creature. It was
on their return journey that Steve says he “saw a black shape on the water” at around 1pm.

He said: “It was when we were returning to the dock near Urquhart Castle. I lost sight of it when the boat turned, but
managed to get a quick photo from a distance.” It was useful timing for the sighting from Steve, as it came just before
the largest hunt for Nessie in over 50 years was launched. The high-tech search will involve drones with infrared cameras
which will be flown over the Loch, and a hydrophone to detect out-of-the-ordinary underwater sounds.

The Mirror:

I don't think most people comprehend the complexities encountered in such a hunt. I found out last night that, although Loch Ness looks relatively small on a map, the depth of it means that the bodies of every single human being on Earth, all 8 billion of us, could be hidden under those murky waters, with a little room to spare. I was a little shocked at the analogy used in that example, but one cannot deny that it has a visceral impact and illustrates the vast volume of the loch at the same time!

I'm not sure how useful aerial infrared scans will be at penetrating the peat floating in the loch. Infrared is used in astronomical investigations because the longer wavelengths penetrate interstellar dust pretty well, so it should also penetrate farther into the peaty waters of the loch, but that assumes Nessie is warm-blooded enough to generate heat, and therefore an infrared signature, which may not be a given.
