10 moody, mean and magnificent harvest photos

We’ve come over all moody and smouldery in this week’s harvest photo round-up, inspired by your uploads to our Harvest Highlights gallery.

Whether it’s sizzling sunsets, dusky evenings or combining by moonlight , it’s all captured as harvest continues apace around the country.

You can check out the gallery so far and upload your pictures by visiting our gallery and you can also email your pictures to fwfarmlife@rbi.co.uk.

Don’t forget, if you submit a photo, it could be the picture we choose for the cover of Farmers Weekly magazine towards the end of harvest.
