Around 35 snappers visited beauty spot The Leasowes, in Halesowen, for their latest Instameet on Saturday.

And the parkland proved to be the perfect setting to capture the season and its rich colours in all their glory.

The Leasowes was designed by the poet William Shenstone between 1743 and 1763.

It is counted among most important landscapes created of the 18th century.

Photographers were given tours around the park while others split into groups for workshop-style sessions with models.
