THANKS to the sunshine and the rain in May, gardens in Mid Cheshire are in full bloom.

To mark National Gardens Day, we asked you to share your colourful photos of your own gardens in bloom or public gardens in the town

The Camera Club is a supportive and friendly group of amateur and professional photographers and as well as submitting photos taken recently, members also take part in regular themed challenges like parks in spring, blossom and clouds.

You can join 716 others in our camera club on Facebook at facebook.com/groups/guardiancameraclub
