Images of Caithness taken by readers of the Caithness Courier and John O'Groat Journal are being sought for our annual calendar competition.
Amateur photographers can now submit their photographs of stunning locations across the county.
Some of the best will be selected to feature in the 2024 Caithness Calendar, which is expected to be a popular gift in the run-up to Christmas.
And there is a high standard to live up to judging by the entries to last year's contest, with beautiful images showing a variety of locations including Ousdale broch, Scrabster harbour, Loch Calder, Thurso boating pond and a glorious sunset at Ackergill harbour.
Last year's cover shot was a stunning night-time image of the Pilot House in Wick.
People are now invited to submit new photographs of the county in all four seasons to the publishers of the Caithness Courier and John O'Groat Journal.
The deadline for entries is September 10, 2023.
