This year we received more than 400 entries in our annual photography competition - a record number!

The standard was very high, making it a tough task for our judges to select the 13 photos that really capture the beauty of Essex throughout the seasons.

The winners reflect the diversity of the flora, fauna and landscape of our county.

The winning pictures will feature in our 2025 Farleigh Hospice calendar. The calendar will be on sale via our online shop and in our stores in early September. To find your local Farleigh store click HERE

This year's cover image features a busy bee. The judges chose this image to tie in with Farleigh's Art Trail 'Buzz in the City' - when 40 colourful bee sculptures will be appearing in Chelmsford between July and September 2025.

The picture of a bee pollinating a flower near the river Chelmer in Chelmsford was taken by Darren Boddy.

All of the winners will be announced on 19 August - which is World Photography Day.
