5 summer photos in and around York from Press Camera Club

And, of course, not to forget a paddle in the sea and an ice-cream!

All these summer moments have been captured by members of our Press Camera Club.

This month they were tasked with taking photos that summed up summer for our monthly prize competition.

We had some wonderful entries and are sharing our favourite five here.

Our winner – who will receive a £50 cash prize – is Sarah Gabbatiss for a beautiful photo of her daughter running through a field of flowers.

Well done Sarah and all our runners-up.
