A schoolgirl on holiday with her parents has taken 'the best picture of the Loch Ness Monster in years' after snapping the mythical creature with her iPhone. Charlotte Robinson from Leeds, who was staying at Loch Ness Highland Lodges in Invermoriston, was stunned when it popped up 50 feet from shore. 'Nessie' surfaced for about a minute before re-surfacing about ten feet further away some seven minutes later, says Miss Robinson, who had been on holiday for less than a day when she made the sighting. Miss Robinson was on holiday with parents Kat, 41, a business intelligence data analyst, and father Dave, 52, a factory worker. Ironically Mr and Mrs Robinson had stayed at the same holiday centre 16 years ago, but had not been back since. It was at around 7pm last Friday when Miss Robinson saw the creature and captured it on her smartphone. 'There was something in the water about 50 feet from the shore. I took a photo. It had a neck and head was in the shape of a hook,' said Miss Robinson. 'I just took what I saw. It was black - I just don't know how far it was out of the water. I'm not good at judging distances. 'But after about a minute it disappeared and then came back up again in a different place. It was up for less than a minute the second time. I kinda believed in Nessie, but I wanted to see the proof. I always imagined her as having a long neck and flippers. 'I have seen something but I'm not sure what. ' Mrs Robinson added: 'Charlotte said she had taken a photo of a creature in the loch and I said 'right, sure you have!' For weeks she's been going on about seeing the Loch Ness Monster. 'But when I saw the picture, I couldn't believe it. Something's there. With all the sightings over the years there must be something in the loch. ' Nessie expert Steve Feltham - who has dedicated his life to solving the mystery of the Loch Ness Monster for the past 27 years - was astonished by the image. 'I am totally excited by this photograph - it is the best of 'Nessie' in years,' said Mr Feltham, 55, who is recognised by the Guinness Book of Records for the longest continuous monster hunting vigil of Loch Ness. 'There is clearly a solid object in it and it is relatively clear. It warrants further study. 'There may be a mundane explanation such as a seal, but I have not heard of a seal in the loch this year. For my money it is larger than a seal or an ottter. It is a fantastic picture by Charlotte. ' Mr Feltham, who lives on the shores of Loch Ness at Dores, added: 'This is just the image we have been waiting for - for years. Congratulations Charlotte. I am totally excited by it. ' There have been four official sightings this year of the Loch Ness Monster. The last previous glimpse of Nessie occurred on August 5 at 9. 38am when the family, regular visitors to the area, were on holiday - also from Leeds. It has now been accepted by the Official Loch Ness Monster Sightings' Register.

The absence of evidence is just evidence of a coverup. Thought you knew.

“...said Miss Robinson. ‘I just took what I saw. It was black - I just don’t know how far it was out of the water. I’m not good at judging distances. ‘”.

I say it was tree fiddy feet away. That’s my SWAG.
