THIS week’s pictures from The Northern Echo Camera Club take us on a journey from bold city sights to the beauty of nature, with black-headed gulls waiting in line for food, to a little grey squirrel enjoying a snack in a flowery field.

A Little Egret can be seen with it's catch of the day in a picture taken by Caroline McHale, and the fluorescent lights of Sunderland city can be seen in a picture taken by Ian Maggiore.

This is just a small selection of the pictures shared by the camera club, and more than 2,100 people are signed up as camera club members.
