The season of mists and mellow fruitfulness is upon us.
Not only does this mean we are close to Halloween and Bonfire Night, but the beautiful autumn colours mean there are beautiful scenes to be captured, from golden leaves to beautiful sunsets.
We asked our camera club members to send in their best photos for an autumn-themed competition on Facebook.
The winner was Mark Draper’s autumnal mushroom photo, pictured right, but the photos were all so good we decided to share more of them with you.
You can join the camera club by searching “Echo camera club south Essex” on Facebook.
