Oxford Mail Camera Club members were given a tricky task - take photos on the theme ‘on the first day of Christmas my true love sent to me’.

As a result, we received lots of photos of ‘five gold rings’ in many different guises, including some fried eggs.

There were also pictures of partridges, and a pear tree and Georgina Elliott-Dew took this delightful photo of some swans swimming.

She admitted that there may not be seven swans in total, but we still think it’s good enough for our camera club photo of the week.

Each week, camera club members are given a theme, and then post their photos on the club’s Facebook page.

A selection of photos are then chosen to feature in the paper and online.

For more information about the club and how it works, visit the camera club Facebook page.

The next theme is Christmas, including Christmas jumpers.
