We asked our readers to send in their best pictures on the theme of "on the horizon". Here is a selection of the photographs we received from around the world.
Ian Hummer
Ian Hummer: "Walking through Kiyomizudera, one can't help but admire the great view of the Kyoto skyline with the mountains in the background."
Martin Offer
Martin Offer: "Dancers on the Sussex Downs salute the summer solstice."
Cassandra Simmons
Cassandra Simmons: "Golden hour at the Temple of Poseidon."
Victor Tregubov
Victor Tregubov: "I was taking a photo of the sunset during one of the stages of the Marathon des Sables in Morocco. However, at home I found that a fellow runner, who also enjoyed the scenery, was in the frame too."
Catherine Holmes
Catherine Holmes: "A stingray cruises calmly along the sandbank while above, a stormy sky develops with boats and snorkellers managing the choppy waters in the Cayman Islands."
Ian Callen
Ian Callen: "I led a group of people with various support needs in the Sahara Desert in Morocco. They took a camel ride at sunset and I followed on foot through the sand-dunes. The group climbed a dune as I watched and the figures became silhouetted against the setting sun."
Marine Gaste
Marine Gaste took this picture of the Champs-Elysees in Paris.
Evelyn Oakley
Evelyn Oakley: "During the pandemic, unemployed cruise ships were moored off Torbay, in Devon, their hulking silhouettes on the horizon a symbol of the strangest of times. These two were photographed from Dawlish Warren in beautiful light on a still, crisp winter's day, Christmas Eve 2020. Our Christmas with family in London had just been cancelled by lockdown."
Kevin Baldwin
Kevin Baldwin: "I wonder if the passengers on that ferry from Dover arrived in Calais richer than when they started the crossing."
Aaron Enloe
Aaron Enloe: "The sun sets on the horizon behind a group of Joshua trees in Joshua Tree National Park."
Andrew Stiles
Andrew Stiles: "A silhouette of a stag on the horizon at Knole Park during rutting season."
Rachael Blakey
Rachael Blakey: "Fishing weir at Dark Harbour, Grand Manan, Canada."
Louise De Kock
Louise De Kock: "Captivated by the enchanting glow illuminating my nightly run in the south of Sweden. Initially puzzled, I soon realised it was the mesmerising lights emanating from the logging factory just beyond my town's borders."
Louise Rayner
Louise Rayner: "Amazing sunrise over Staithes in North Yorkshire."
Thomas Sherring
Thomas Sherring: "A faint Northern Lights display dancing over the horizon during a cold night in Tromsø, Norway this January."
John Lanagan
John Lanagan: "Families enjoy a sunny February afternoon on the beach in Southwold. By using a long lens I managed to get the distant Sizewell nuclear station to loom large on the horizon. I like to think that if Lowry was alive and visited Southwold, he may capture something like this."
Caroline Ebbage
Caroline Ebbage: "We were fortunate enough to be able to kayak on Lough Neagh before the recent issues with algae build-up. A perfectly calm day gave us an infinite horizon."
Dominique Siegrist
Dominique Siegrist: "Sam, my trusted hiking partner, looks out on to the horizon atop Jay Peak."
Julian Crowe
Julian Crowe: "Mojave Desert landscape at sunset via the rear-view mirror of a Ford Mustang."
Mark Kelly
Mark Kelly: "Contemplation."
Richard Smeeton
Richard Smeeton: "Locals gather around Essaouira's citadel at sunset."
The next theme is "speed" and the deadline for entries is 5 March 2024.
