They have captured the unusual shots which offer a new slant on our familiar and much-loved sights.
Here is Shropshire at its glorious best:
* Ironbridge under a dusting of snow
* Wild ponies on the Long Mynd
* Bridgnorth's High Rock in autumn colours
* The ancient holly grove on the Stiperstones
* Frozen canal boats at Ellesmere
* Spectacular colour in the Dingle, Shrewsbury
* Ludlow in the grip of a hoar frost
Moving throughout the year, from spring to winter, and covering every corner of Shropshire from tiny hamlets to our proud towns and monuments, this collection is a breathtaking tribute to this diverse, unspoilt and often overlooked part of England.
