We asked our readers to send in their best pictures on the theme of “circles”. Here is a selection of the photographs we received from around the world.

The next theme is “tiny creatures” and the deadline for entries is 22 November 2023.

The pictures will be published later that week and you will be able to find them, along with other galleries, on the In Pictures section of the BBC News website.

You can upload your entries on this page or email them to yourpics@bbc.co.uk.

Terms and conditions apply.

Further details and themes are at: We set the theme, you take the pictures.
