Royston Photographic Society is celebrating its latest competition winners and the conclusion of its second exhibition at Tesco.
The club entered a variety of pictures into the St Ives Interclub competition, where they placed particularly well.
Society member Bob Coote was awarded a gold medal from the Photographic Alliance of Great Britain for his image of a robber fly - which was featured in the Crow last month - the highest accolade possible for a photography club competition.
Last month's competition was on the theme of 'people', and the judge was photographer Jonathan Vaines.

He chose Dave Waters' 'Kite Flyers' from the Heath Kite Festival in first place, with 'Are We There Yet' by Peter Baker in second and 'Catching Up With Media' by Phil Gravett in third.
The society's landscape group has been out and about despite the cold weather, as club member Peter Baker commented: "There is no such thing as bad weather for photography, just inappropriate clothing."
This month the group visited Godmanchester Lakes and travelled along to Houghton Mill.

Peter added: "The review of images collected was one of our most educational sessions to date with many wonderful pictures taken after a hard frost."
The society has also finished its second exhibition in Tesco, which was well-received by the public.
Peter said: "The pictures always attract lots of attention and allow the people of Royston to see just what our club is about.

"We would like to give our huge thanks to Tesco for being such good friends to Royston Photographic Society."
The team at Tesco has invited the society back after the summer break, with new pictures to share.

Although the club will not meet over the Easter break - from April 6 to April 13 - the surrounding weeks contain some of their most anticipated presentations of the year.
Photographer Bob Brind-Surch is presenting a closer view of the skills involved in macro photography, followed by a landscape night and a consideration of the elements involved in making a successful competition photograph.
