News Shopper today launches its very own Camera Club - and is calling on all photographers to sign up.

The Camera Club's aim is to give all photographers the opportunity to have their images published and potentially seen by millions of people online - and in print.

There will be monthly competitions with a £50 prize for the lucky winner.

From landscapes to landmarks and people to pooches, we want to see the best images amateurs have captured from around our patch that show off just how special a place it is to live.

The club will be coordinated via our new Facebook group.

Anyone interested in joining can request to become a member online and can then share tips and tricks with other members, organise outings and exhibitions.

Images posted on the page will also get the chance to be featured in galleries on our website.

Existing camera clubs are invited to join the group, as well as those who have an interest in photography as a hobby.

Visit Facebook.com and search for “The News Shopper Camera Club” to join.
