Fred's eyes on the prize
Bluebell walkies winner's wonderful parting gift
One of the most special dog walks ever
When Hannah Brittlebank grabbed the lead for faithful friend Fred, she could never have known just what a lucrative stroll in the spring sunshine it would turn out to be.
But as he padded his way through the bluebells at her farm in Leigh near Stoke in Staffordshire, his doting owner grabbed her camera phone and earned a summer shopping spree.
This lovely shot caught the eye of the Gridline team in the 'Spring is Sprung' category to win a cool £150 in shopping vouchers.
Hannah says: "The picture was taken in an ancient woodland that is part of our farm and shows Fred enjoying himself. He sadly passed away recently so I really treasure this picture.
"It was such a perfect moment. He absolutely loved the wood, especially the squirrels! I'm so glad I took this picture because it always reminds me of him."
This time we're broadening the photographic theme so send us a landscape picture that you think sums up what makes Britain great.

She suggested 'Sorry, nobody told me it was a no fly zone', but it was her suggestion below that brought a smile to our judges' faces to win our £50 caption competition. Here's the Gloucestershire grantor's winning entry for the butterfly meets rabbit shot.
