IT'S that time of year when some of us go and get our winter coats in preparation of the cold weather ahead.
But spare a thought for some of East Lancashire's top amateur photographers who have been out with their cameras capturing photographs of autumn in the countryside.
We have been inundated with some brilliant shots of golden colours and images of the changes in the seasons.
If you still want to see your picture added to the wonderful entries online then send them to robert.kelly@nqnw.co.uk.
Make sure you like our Facebook page to catch up with the latest themes for the competition and see previous entrants.
