THERE were some great photos taken around St Helens over the past two weeks showcasing the beauty of the area in autumn.

Mike Horton watched the sunshine through the trees, Chris Shaw was in Sutton and Ste Jones snapped a picture of some ducks having fun.

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 parks in autumn, portraits and planes, trains and automobiles.
