SHOPPERS are being offered the chance to view images of Teesside and further afield as part of a photographic display.

The exhibition, being staged at Middlesbrough's Cleveland Centre throughout this week, comprises of amateur foreign and local landscape pictures, as well as portraits and wildlife shots.

They have been chosen as competition entries by members of the North Yorkshire and South Durham Photographic Society, which is behind the exhibition.

The society, formed in 1952, has put on displays at the centre for the past 20 years, enabling thousands of shoppers to share in its members' work.

Centre manager David Ward said: "We are delighted the photographic society is back in the centre again, and we know from past experience that shoppers enjoy looking at the superb selection of photographs on display."

The winner of the competition will receive a trophy provided by the shopping centre
