Week in pictures around East Devon

All of these images were sent to us through our photo-sharing website, iwitness24 and each week we put together a gallery for you to enjoy. If you would like to get involved and start seeing your photos in print/online then why not join our community of local photographers at www.iwitness24.co.uk.

PHOTO CHALLENGE: Every week we set our readers a photo challenge to have a go at and our new theme is ‘The Big Freeze’. We’d love to see your snowy scenes from anywhere around East Devon, so if you would like to enter then simply upload your shots to the iwitness24 East Devon photo-challenge group.
