IT has been incredibly difficult to choose but after much deliberation this month’s Argus Camera Club winner has been chosen.

The topic was “autumn” and the winner is Tommy Kronholm for his outstanding picture of Seaford Bonfire Night.

The runner-up is Dominic Ellett, for his photo of storm waves breaking over the harbour wall at Newhaven.

Argus picture editor Allan Hutchings said: “All of the entries were excellent but Tommy’s picture is so difficult to capture and he has absolutely excelled at capturing the atmosphere of the event.”

Argus editor Arron Hendy said: “Our Camera Club continues to grow each month with 439 now on board.

“It has really ballooned in size this year as it is a great place for photographers to share images, tips and ideas.

“It is always difficult to select a winner, but we still love the chance to look through all the fantastic pictures no matter how hard it is to choose a favourite.”

You can use a camera or your phone to take images, everyone is welcome.

All that matters is that you enjoy it.
