Joanne Martin took a well-timed picture of a squirrel perched on a tree branch.

Nick Page Hayman's photo zooms in on a tugboat, which manoeuvres ships at sea near Portishead.

He captured the vessel on an overcast day in the bay.

Alan Harrison submitted an image at Portishead beach, which looks out towards Battery Point near Black Nore Lighthouse.

He also took a picture of a huge tree, which was swept inland onto Portishead beach by tidal currents.

In addition, he sent in a snapshot of the former National Nautical School in Portishead, which is now Fedden Village apartment complex.

Finally, Billy Jo Howe said it was a 'magical moment to capture' a picture of her horse playing in fields.
