Your Great Days Out in pictures.

TIDAL WINGS

By: Helen Brassington Where: RSPB Snettisham Nature Reserve, Norfolk

“I love to visit Snettisham when the tides are high in winter. When the high tide comes in to meet the shore, the waders – knots, redshanks, oystercatchers – take to the air in an extravaganza of birds. It takes your breath away.”

WHITE WAVES

By: Julie Taylor

Where: Bedruthan Beach, Cornwall

“The view from the cliffs above the steps leading down to this stunning beach is awe-inspiring. I love these dramatic craggy stacks and the layers of frothy waves rolling in to the sandy shore.”

BRIGHT EYES

By: Shaun Woodward Where: Sprotborough Flash, South Yorkshire “This beautiful peacock butterfly caught my attention because its colours were so vivid – it seemed to like the sun beaming down on it, with wings spread wide.”

FLORAL CLIFFS

By: Peter Walton Where: Llŷn Peninsula, Gwynedd, Wales

“In the foreground is Nant Eiddon, there’s a glimpse of the beach in the centre, and the Irish sea beneath the sky. The thrift is fantastic in May, and choughs were flying around the cliff edge.”

TOAD IN GRASS

By: Gary Bridge

Where: Stanley Bank Wood, Merseyside

“Every March, my two boys and I head to the local pond to see if we can glimpse the spawning frogs and toads. This year we timed it perfectly, as all the toads were in the long damp grass and we got some great shots.”

SPRING MIRROR

By: Julia Amies-Green Where: River Exe at Exebridge, Devon

“I regularly visit this beautiful spot on the Somerset-Devon border. I love the reflection of the bridge and the trees in the beautifully still water. I find it calming and restful.”

NARROW VISION

By: Zoe Hodkinson

Where: St Annes-on-theSea, Lancashire

“I liked the colours, how the beach huts naturally frame the shot, and the spontaneity. It encapsulates what you can see at the seaside.”
