Have you signed up for our 2016 Flickr project yet? 

For the last seven years, we've collected and curated photographers' amazing images of Dorset and the New Forest.

This is the eight year, and the 2016 group is now open to members. 

You can see the group in full here or see our favourite photos submitted to the group by month in our galleries. 

You don't need to be a professional photographer to take part as it's open to everyone. 

Landscapes, portraits, wildlife, people or news pictures - we want them all.

Don't forget to tag your pictures with the month it was taken and to include a brief description so we know it was taken in the local area.

Here are some of our favourites from January so far...
