We're into a new month and new season which means it's time for our round-up of pictures we love from our Flickr group in August. 

You can see a longlist of favourite shots from August by clicking here - and if you think you can do better, why not join our group? 

We’re after your photos from Dorset and the New Forest: portraits, wildlife shots, landscapes or news pictures, we want them all!

Everyone is welcome to join in and it's not too late to get involved. 

You can see our favourites from the year so far at the links below.

Sunshine, smoke trails and shadows!
