Local residents have been voting for their top pictures from this year's exhibition by the Harpenden Photographic Society.

Because of the pandemic, this year's display was collated online in a special video.

The six-minute video featured 74 inspirational images from 37 local HPS members, with subjects ranging from landscape, portrait, macro, abstract, to street, and natural world.
