THE best pictures from The Northern Echo's Camera Club this week include plenty of nature, weather and wildlife.

A beautiful red squirrel reflection is caught by Steve Hanley, and Alastair Graham took a pretty snap in a meadow of wildflowers.

Our camera club gives amateur photographers a unique opportunity to have their images published in the North East's leading regional daily newspaper, The Northern Echo.

The club also has a dedicated Facebook group where members can share their best snaps, get feedback and share tips.

If you're from the North East or North Yorkshire, to become a member, request to join our group on Facebook.

If you're not a member of Facebook, you can email sarah.caldecott@nne.co.uk for more information about the club.
