Your pictures of the year 2021
- Published
Throughout 2021 we asked our readers to send in their pictures on a variety of themes. Here is a selection of the best of those we received from around the world.
Ryan Ketterer took this picture for the theme 'under the stars' from Mount Graham in Arizona, USA.
Justin Saculles: "Summer the whippet expressing her happiness in lockdown, by catching her favourite treats."
Tara Lowry: "Some summertime fun with Spanish sunflowers in Andalusia."
Ravi Ranjan: "Art on the beach - twisting a champagne bottle cork and muselet into a 3D doodle."
Kelley J Curran: "Fun shooting with my pal Rachel, flashback to the 80s!"
Kathy Williams: "A scarab beetle makes tracks through the dunes of the Erg Chebbi desert in Morocco."
Alex Bond took this picture, Escaping Bubbles.
Oliver Kupferschmidt: "A freshly-hatched lizard explores the outskirts of Berlin in early summer. Photographed in a girl's hand."
Annie Roper called this photo Mini-me-lism: "Inspired by stories like The Borrowers, this image is created by superimposing a self-portrait into a small-scale scene. Made in the height of lockdown last year, this project allowed me to go on big adventures in my suddenly tiny world."
Alexander Henshaw: "When you've travelled as far as land can take you, just sit and soak it in, that's all there is to do."
Natasha Everson-Williams: "I can't get enough of my favourite food - pasta. Here is a plate of lemon, courgette and crispy caper pasta for a lockdown lunch."
Stuart Harrison: "We adopted Stevie from a cat rescue centre during the pandemic in June 2020, and he has settled, as this recent picture shows."
Hamish Couper: "Long-tailed tit fledglings quarrelling on a branch in a north Oxford woodland. The range of expressions is striking, as they tussle for best position to receive food from their parents/carers."
Patrick Dixon: "A squirrel on the DIY bird feeder my son made."
James Buttenshaw: "Ladybirds sheltering in the top of an old fence post by the side of a corn field in Hertfordshire."
Leah Burton: "A family Covid catch-up while sheltering from the sea air blowing over the seafront in Weston."
Chris Lee: "A lone figure strolls along Bregagh Road, Northern Ireland."
Mark V Lord sent this picture from Baltimore in the US.
