We are lucky in Sussex to live close to some of the most stunning chalk hills in the country.
The South Downs stretch from the Seven Sisters cliffs near Eastbourne, skirting the edge of Brighton, all the way up to near Winchester in Hampshire.
Though beautiful all year round, the national park really comes into its own when the vibrant green fields are in their full summer splendour.
The longer days and late evenings mean walkers can get the chance to take a stroll after work - those in Brighton can hop on one of the buses up to Ditchling Beacon or Devil's Dyke for a wander.
Our camera club snapper Emma Crosby made the trip from Brighton into the Downs a little earlier this month to capture the stunning scenery.

She shot patchwork fields, dramatic skies, and a golden sunset from Devil's Dyke, which has perfect vantage points to see the sun dip below the horizon in summer.
Dave Mason also captured a wonderful aerial shot of Ditchling Beacon which is covered in luscious greenery at this time of year.
At opposite ends of the county, Firle Beacon and Harting Down also offer wonderful views - if you're in Sussex, you'll never be very far from one of these picturesque scenes.
