As the Daily Echo Camera Club approaches 2,000 members, their enthusiasm and talent shines through brighter than ever before. Many have posted their superbly snapped pictures taken this week - some of which are displayed on these pages.

Among the images is a pair of pheasants seemingly involved in a fracas, a regimental line of seagulls and swans with their image reflected in water.

Along with images of beautiful beasts is a selection of luscious landscapes including Southampton Common, Eling and Itchen Stoke.

Whatever the subject, Camera Club members have been posting hundreds of excellent images from across the county.

The pictures are regularly published in the Daily Echo and in galleries on dailyecho.co.uk.

We welcome submissions on virtually any topic or theme, and joining the group is easy and free.
