Success was sweet for Alex Henderson in the latest of Thurso Camera Club’s weekly photo challenges as she paid a photographic tribute to frontline health workers.

The subject for week five of the weekly contest was "sweets" and Alex devised a composition which used confectionery and sugar to create a rainbow and a message saying "Thank you NHS".

Neil Buchan's entry also gave recognition to the NHS, and he was placed second equal with Jane Foster who constructed a scene with Lego figures mining for sweets.
