Here is a selection of the photographs we received from around the world.Erika ValkovicovaErika Valkovicova: "Aurora dancing around the heart-shaped rock on Uttakleiv beach in Lofoten[, Norway]."Matthew LoganMatthew Logan: "These boys, brothers I assume, were fishing in a local canal on a hot summer day near Washington DC. To me, it has a timeless quality, like it could've been taken 10 or 50 or 100 years ago and little would have changed."Uku S??tUku S??t: "A silhouette of travellers crossing the historic Mandalay bridge[, Myanmar, formerly known as Burma,] against the golden hues of sunset."Ian GarfieldIan Garfield: "This is Lulu, our whippet cross, doing what whippets do best. I'd just bought a new lens and took our dogs for a run at Sutton Park, near Birmingham, one Sunday evening - and this image captures everything about Lulu beautifully. She was three when that photo was taken - and having just turned 12, she's a little bit slower these days. But out of all the photos I've taken since then, this is still my favourite."Adam TaylorAdam Taylor: "While visiting Bharatpur Bird Sanctuary, in India, I noticed these darters fishing in an algae-covered lake. Every so often, the birds caught a fish underwater and emerged - before tossing the fish in the air and swallowing it whole."Sean CorlettSean Corlett: "Every year, I cover the Isle of Man TT races. This is a shot of Davey Todd at Ago's Leap - you can see where it gets its name from. I was lying on the ground to get the low angle - this makes the shot for me."Verna EvansVerna Evans: "This young boy suddenly popped up, from behind his garden fence, wearing a bear mask. I managed to capture his portrait before he ducked down again out of sight."Conor MacleodConor Macleod: "Puffin portrait."Erhard KrugerErhard Kruger: "Taken in the Kruger National Park, South Africa, near the Satara Rest Camp. The swallows were busy with nest-building in a culvert underneath the road - and in this photo, were busy with courtship."Aditi SharmaAditi Sharma: "Mossy growth along a brick wall."Diane LangfordDiane Langford: "I find dandelions fascinating and beautiful. These unassuming beauties give so much to us - yet the majority of people disregard them as weeds and a nuisance, without even giving them a second glance."Sonja de KlerkSonja de Klerk: "Garlic photographed with the special effect of dry ice."Prerna JainPrerna Jain: "Peahen in conversation with its babies."Peter KitanovPeter Kitanov: "The curious leopard gecko from the Sofia Zoo, in Bulgaria."Jennifer J HartshornJennifer J Hartshorn: "I took this photo 15 years ago as visitors were beginning to leave at the end of the day. To my surprise, it won best in show in my local village competition. It encouraged me to take photography more seriously and join a camera club."Sophie BrindSophie Brind: "We rounded a corner to see this small herd, with three calves protected in the centre of the group, crossing the track. For just a second, they looked at me before they continued on their way."Iain ShawIain Shaw: "Civerinos - Forrest Road, Edinburgh, part of my project to shoot the city at night using a handheld camera."Keith BrookeKeith Brooke: "Sizewell power station's outflow platforms, in the North Sea."Suzanne McGiffenSuzanne McGiffen: "I'm always taking pics of my beagles - but Martha couldn't wait to get a treat this time. Sometimes, accidental photos are the best."All photographs subject to copyright.Photography
