The latest entries in our Natural World competition are a wide range of animals, plants and landscapes.
They include two great snaps from reader David Foulds.
His picture of a wood mouse was taken in his back garden in Oadby.
He said: "I thought it was a rat at first and it came scurrying out and jumped up on to the bird table, which it had obviously had a lot of practice at.
"It started nibbling the bird food and I wondered if it would sit there long enough for me to go and get my camera.
"Wood mice are usually very difficult to shoot but it sat there and let me take pictures of it."
David, 75, volunteers at Brocks Hill Country Park in Oadby and also took the photo of frogs in a pond at the park.
He said: "It was one day back in March or April and I was doing the bird count at the park when I came across about 20 frogs in the shallow part of the pond. It was an amazing sight and soon after there was lots of frog spawn and now there are tiny little frogs all over the park."
The colourful shot of sunset over a reservoir was taken by Jarek Podsiadlo.
Jarek, 30, of Newfoundpool, Leicester, said: "I'd gone to Rutland Water with a couple of friends to take pictures at sunset a few weeks ago.
"It was a great evening for it because there wasn't much wind so the clouds and the water were very still."
Linsey Williams, of Kirby Muxloe, took a picture of a stag at Bradgate Park, humorously entitling it "Stag Party – The Morning After".
You have until midnight on September 28 to send in up to five photographs, which must be marked "Natural World Competition".
They should be between 500kb and 3mb and include the photographer's name, address, daytime contact number and a short description of the subject. Cash prizes of £100 for the winner and £50 for two runners-up are being provided by Leicester Photography.
