Capturing the Essence of Autumn: Showcasing the Natural Splendor of Fall Through Your Images

Our readers were invited to share their favorite photos under the theme of "autumn colors" and we received a wonderful collection of submissions from all over the world. In the upcoming week, we will publish these photos, along with other galleries, on the BBC News website's In Pictures section. If you would like to participate in our next theme, "bright lights," you can upload your pictures on this page or email them to yourpics@bbc.co.uk. Please keep in mind that terms and conditions apply, and all photographs are subject to copyright. For more information about the themes and submission guidelines, please visit our website.
