Bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) two breaching in evening light, Moray Firth

Bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) two breaching in evening light, Moray Firth, Inverness-shire, Scotland, UK, August, sequence 2/2. Photographer quote: A day of overcast cloud cleared in the last ten minutes of sunset spilling golden light through a small gap between the cloud base and hill top. A group of dolphins seized the moment and performed a perfect synchronized leap in the low warm sunlight. And I smiled, sighed with relief, and went home happy! Did you know? The bottle nose dolphins in the Moray Firth are said to be worth more than £4m to the Inverness economy through tourism revenue

Lie detector test

MODEL RELEASED. Lie detector test. Pulse meters on a man's fingers during a lie detector, or polygraph, test. A polygraph records changes in a number of physiological processes, as a series of questions are asked by an examiner. As well as measuring heart rate with these pulse meters, blood pressure and respiration rate are also measured. The examiner interprets the results to determine if the subject demonstrated deceptive behaviour. The reliability of polygraphs is controversial and their evidence is not admissible in court
