Photos have been submitted across nine categories, including landscapes, nature, people and portraits.

A society spokesman said: “Every year, our Photoshow inspires people to join the society and have a go at entering.

“We like to encourage them and also welcome experts and enthusiasts alike.

“Many just enjoy a day at the seaside and spend an hour or two enjoying the show. Last year we had around 800 visitors.”
