Datebook: November 12 - Loch Ness Monster Smiles for the Camera

Enlarge image

Hugh Gray walked along the shore of Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands on a breezy, November day in 1933, when he spotted commotion in the water. Suddenly, a large creature with a long tail and thick body rose up from the lake, four flipper like appendages flailing about. Gray fumbled with his camera and snapped the first known picture of the Loch Ness Monster.
