The shot was captured by their mother Melanie Lord on her iPhone at Corton Beach.

Miss Lord said: "My little boy has autism and loves being out in the scenery. He doesn't like taking photos but they were playing and then came close together - it was too nice not to capture."

The 29-year-old said she was "absolutely ecstatic" to win picture of the week and was thrilled to share the beautiful image of her children Harry and Jessica with the community.

As our winner, Miss Lord receives a 10in x 8in framed version of her photo from Picture Studios, of London Road North, in Lowestoft town centre. Entries can be of any subject but they must be digital images.
