While temperatures have cooled in north-east England and Cumbria, the sun is still shining and flowers and plants are in full bloom.

July is drawing to a close and the schools have officially broken up, which means more of us are getting out into the lovely weather.

As always, our Weather Watchers are among them, capturing beautiful scenes as they go.

Here are some of our favourites.
