The Oxford Mail Camera Club members have been focusing on nature this week after being given a theme of 'new beginnings'.

Each week members of the club are given a theme and put their photos forward on the club's Facebook page.

Members were inspired to take photos of flowers, the sun on the horizon, lambs in spring, farm animals and a variety of garden and wild birds.
