reflections photo competition
Some eerie shots of children's shadows are among the latest pictures to be entered into our Reflections photography competition.
Leicester artist Clair J Robins, 43, was on holiday in Norfolk when she took a picture of her three-year-old daughter, Florrie.
She said: "I was taking lots of pictures of Florrie having fun and playing on the beach when the tide started tumbling in and Florrie started speeding away from it.
"I love taking pictures of movement in a static shot and my favourite part of the picture has to be how clearly Florrie's shadow came out."
Jeff Flowers, 53, from Wigston, also took a shadowy picture of his two-year-old granddaughter, Amber, at his home.
He said: "She was absolutely fascinated by her shadow one sunny day.
"Being only young, I don't think she quite worked out that it was her shadow being reflected on the wall.
"I tried doing different animal shadows for her as well, but she was much more interested in her own shadow to be honest, so I thought it would be cute to take a picture of her."
Jeff Broughton, 58, from Thringstone, was out walking near his home when he captured the moment a rock, thrown by his son Gavin, disturbed the peaceful reflection of an old mill.
