SUMMER was the challenge for the Worcester News Camera Club members - and they have captured the best of the season in these brilliant pictures.

Our winner this month is Penny Webb for her joyful image of children playing in the confetti fields near Wick.

Runners up were Sarah Freeman whose snap of a cheeky goat can't fail to raise a smile and Sara Jayne Clark whose picture of the sun setting across the sea brings to mind the end of long, summer days.

Picture Editor Jonathan Barry also picked out pictures by Roxana Lupu, Richard Purvis, Steve Davies, Hannah Hitchins, Nick Lee and Julia Saunders.

Thank you to all who sent their pictures in.

This month's challenge is places.
