Somerset in Pictures: Sunrises and a lunar eclipse
Stargazers in Somerset woke up to a rare partial lunar eclipse on Friday morning.
Meanwhile, spring is springing across the county, with trees blossoming and people flocking to the beaches.
Take a look at some of the best pictures across Somerset this week.
Purple sky: Somerset photographer Matt captured this beautiful night sky above the Stanton Drew Stone Circles.
Early sunrise: As spring is springing, the sun is rising earlier and turning the sky pink and orange.
Beach days: Last weekend saw people flock to the beach in Weston-super-Mare, as they enjoyed the warmer weather.
In bloom: More springtime views were captured in Blue Anchor as apple trees are starting to bloom.
Support dog: Anne Herbert, a senior law lecturer at Bath Spa University, has Ehlers Danlos syndrome, which gives her skeletal instability. Without support dog Rafa, his owner may well be facing life in a wheelchair.
