St Loy, Cornwall "We've been coming to St Loy for holidays regularly for years'. "The sound of the waves crashing against the shore is just magical. We spend hours climbing over the massive rocks and exploring. "Looking at this picture always makes my day feel better!" Mr & Mrs Davies, Worcester

Learning about butterflies "We were amazed to find this butterfly in February. It was really docile because of the cold and was glad of a warm hand. "My daughter spent about 15 minutes letting the butterfly walk around on her hand and warm up before he flew off. "She is now fascinated by butterflies and I hope that by making a few changes we can now encourage more into our garden. "My daughters enthusiasm has made me more aware of the importance of helping our natural wildlife. She has inspired me." Katherine & Alexandra , Birmingham

Awe-inspiring! "We're very lucky to live near the Brecon Beacons and are regularly inspired by the stunning views and changes through the seasons. "This picture shows the enchanting affect of mist rising from the valley off the River Wye. Simply stunning!" Name & address supplied.
