We asked them to capture the orange trees and golden sunlight with the theme "autumnal orange" and the result was a huge variety of great pictures of wildlife and landscapes.

But one picture stood out from the rest - Leah Parkes's image of her pooch at Tulley's Farm. Her cute picture of the little griffon sitting in a wheelbarrow wearing a pumpkin hat instantly put a smile on our faces.

Leah is the winner of the October competition and receives the £50 prize.

It was difficult to pick runners-up from the dozens of entries but a stunning picture by Shannon Cassidy showing Brighton's Palace Pier reflected in the sand with a golden sunset behind was a close one.

Sophie Jasmin Mitchell also captured the moment a seagull walked right in front of the golden sun to create a perfect silhouette.

Kim Barrey was up early to catch the sunrise through the supports of the seafront bandstand.

The simplicity of Rose Jones's orange leaves picture caught our eye - and when you look at the photograph in detail you notice all of the different autumnal colours around in October.

You can get involved next month by joining our Facebook Group. The theme is "weather" and we're looking for the best pictures of the wet and wild weather up ahead - be creative. It might, of course, also be sunny or even frosty towards the end of the month.

You can post your picture on our page, mentioning where it is taken to be in with a chance of winning a £50 prize. The deadline is midnight on November 30. Good luck.
