Covid and lockdowns have caused havoc across the UK, with many unable to do activities and see people they normally would.
This week, we asked our talented camera club members to post a picture of something they really miss about not being in lockdown – and their posts were touching.
From seeing family members to going for walks with friends, calling into the local pub, going out for drives and discovering new destinations, exploring the countryside and taking part in activities such as running and football, these are just some of the things our members miss.
Linda Curley misses the Wycombe Rye parkrun (picture taken last February)
Seb Brechon can’t wait for his boys to start playing football again. They both play for Naphill FC.
Michael King misses the chance to watch local sports. This action is from a match at Holmer Green.
Paula Sims misses her mother. She left this sweet note for her after spotting her car while picking up some shopping.
She said: "So near but yet so far as they say. But I know this made her smile so much when she found it."
Anne Rixon misses concerts and calling in at the pub. The first photo shows the last concert she went to - Steve Hackett at Aylesbury Waterside, November 2019.
She also misses the Lions of Bledlow pub and stopping by for some lunch on a break from a walk.
Jonathan Rogers is looking forward to riding from destination to destination again.

He said: "I miss going out for a nice ride on the bike, just for the enjoyment of riding destination to destination, with the camera in tow."
Jenna Cleaver also likes discovering new places on drives. She said: "Driving with no specific destination is a whole different type of freedom which I love."
Her picture was taken near Ashridge.
Kim Russell misses walking with her friends in the beautiful Chilterns.
Steve Crockford said his nieces really miss the Gruffalo in Wendover Woods and he really misses a warm meal inside the cafe after a long ride.
Karen Livett misses the freedom of exploring the beautiful countryside, "of just getting in the car and going where we want when we want".
Toni Standing is looking forward to meeting her walking friend again, who lives "a little too far".
