After a long dark winter the need for a bit of sunshine and blue skies has never felt greater.

And over the past week, we've been spoilt in Andover with glorious Spring weather.

The Advertiser's Camera Club members have been out in force capturing these seasonal scenes and sharing them with the group, which has now amassed more than 500 members.

The club's theme for March is also signs of spring.

In addition to that for all our members, a special congratulations to Char Emma, whose photo is this week’s picture of the week.

She shared the stunning photo in Andover Advertiser Camera Club.

Members of the club called the photo excellent and beautiful, while another member rightly predicted: "That’s gotta be next week’s winner," and added "though it won’t print as good as it looks here unfortunately."

Each week, we select one of our favourite images submitted to our camera club to publish on our letters page.

The group is free and easy to join. Simply search ‘Andover Advertiser Camera Club’ on Facebook or follow this link.
