MEMBERS of St Helens Star Camera Club have shared some photographs that perfectly cast a shadow around the area.

Each week we asked members to submit their photographs based on a theme - this week was shadows - and there were some interesting shots sent in.

From early morning shady views to perfectly timed shots of nature, there are some great images.

The Camera Club is a supportive and friendly group of amateur and professional photographers and as well as submitting photos taken recently, members also take part in regular themed challenges like raindrops and pairs.

You can join 891 others in our camera club on Facebook at facebook.com/groups/sthelensstarcameraclub
