One of the highlights of the recent Saddleworth Festival of the Arts was the Flower Festival at St Chad’s Church in Uppermill, which ran for five days earlier this month.

The festival’s theme was the popular hymn All Things Bright and Beautiful, with a series of stunning displays illustrating the words. This selection of images of the various displays was sent in by Jane McCann, so many thanks to her for that.

A super photograph of the whole church in full bloom can be seen and ordered from the Saddleworth In Focus website by clicking here.

"The sunset and the morning that brightens up the sky"

"The cold wind in the winter"

"The pleasant summer sun"

"The ripe fruits in the garden"

"The tall trees in the green wood"

"The meadows for our play"

"The rushes by the water"
