The 12 photographs have been chosen from 36 finalists (three for each month) after being voted on by the authority’s Facebook followers who selected their favourite images by ‘liking’ them.

They had been whittled down from 114 entries received by the council through a judging panel.

A spokesman said: “We’re really pleased by the number of entries we received for this year’s calendar and the high quality of images submitted.

“All the pictures show just a fraction of some of the best sides of Boston and we encourage our local photographers, both amateur and professional, to go out and start showing off how beautiful the town can be.”

The top 12 will feature, with the photographer’s name, in an online calendar available for all to use, download to their phone or other device or print off for free from Boston Borough Council’s website.
