Sadly, the rain has returned over the last few days and residents across the West of Scotland fear we have already had our fill of summer weather.

We have been blessed with days and weeks of blue skies and sunshine and with the kind weather brings plenty of opportunities for an idyllic snap of the beautiful surroundings this corner of the world presents to us.

As usual, Camera Club members of the Dumbarton Reporter, Clydebank Post, Renfrewshire Gazette, and Barrhead News didn't let us down as they pictured stunning sunsets and pristine cloudless skies.

So, sit back, relax, and enjoy these gorgeous pictures and allow your mind to take you back to the brighter days of last week.
