THE theme for the Basingstoke Gazette Camera Club in October was numbers, allowing members of the club to get creative.

Dozens of members got involved in the monthly theme and shared their incredible photos.

Streetsigns, animals, trains and flowers were just some of the subjects captured by the camera club this month.

While the majority of the photos showed literal depictions of numbers, a few of the photographs played with the theme or created visual puns based on the theme.

It was not easy to select just 18 photos to highlight from the dozens posted this month, but we have selected some stand outs.

Camera club members Eric Denton and Darron Burton both took photos of trains racing down the track, with Darron managing to catch the driver waving as he sped by.

Meanwhile, Brenda Turner called her photo "Topical and tasty" as her photo invited members of the club into her kitchen as she baked a queen of puddings dessert.

But a real standout this month was Fay Nickless's photo of seven fallen apples lying in a puddle.

Masterfully capturing the reflection of the apples in the water, Fay's photo was selected as Picture of the Week.
