THE festival season is in full swing as these fantastic pictures show.
The Worcester News Camera Club members rose to our latest challenge to capture pictures that show the many different faces of festivals.
The photographs show the diversity of events around Worcestershire - encompassing music, dance, cars and boats - and even a ploughing festival.
Worcester News picture editor Jonathan Barry picked Richard Purvis's excellent shot of an acrobatic keyboard player at Mello as the winner. Two other of Richard's festival pictures were also chosen to be featured.
Runners up were Les Vann for his picture of a fun-loving and sombrero-wearing crowd and Joe Prentice for his picture that captures the joy of jazz.
Thank you to all who entered. Summer is the challenge for next month.
