THE snow last week was only fleeting, coming down lightly and barely settling across the district.

In more elevated areas the snow stuck around for a bit longer, aided by the chilly temperatures.

Members of the Telegraph & Argus Camera Club rarely miss the opportunity to get out and about with their cameras to capture some of nature's wonders, and last week's dusting of snow was no different.

No sooner had the snow landed on the ground, were fervent snappers out searching for the best shots of the snow.

Mel Crossley ventured up to Denholme on her hunt for the perfect shot, and captured her image looking out from Whalley Lane.

Her moody shot captured the essence of a British winter, with trees bare of leaves while snow covers the ground, all against a backdrop of a misty grey sky.

Rob Atkins didn't have to go far for his image, as the snow settled on the roadside in Allerton. The snow turned the roadside white, topping cars and houses to create a typical wintry scene.

Steve Davey's black and white shot from Otley Chevin is perhaps the moodiest shot of the lot. The snow is beginning to melt away in his photo, but the low mist and columns of tall, dark, leafless trees create a chilling, spooky setting.

While no snow is visible in Sam Manson's close-up shot, it reflects the icy temperatures which hit the district last week.

Water which has run through cracks in the paving slabs has frozen, creating a reflective sheen over the stone showing the crystallising ice. Hopefully nobody had any slips or falls on this patch of ice!
