THERE were some fantastic photos shared by members of St Helens Star Camera Club this week.

Feathered friends were in the frame and Suzy Makin captured the depths of winter.

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 old and new and extreme weather.

You can join 957 others in our camera club on Facebook at facebook.com/groups/sthelensstarcameraclub
