BBC News readers have been sending in their finest photographs on the theme of 'in the cold', capturing frosty landscapes, icy swims, and chilly wildlife from around the world.
The selection showcases the diverse ways winter and cold conditions are experienced, from frozen lakes to snow-covered hills.
The next theme is 'wilderness', with the deadline for entries set for 23 January 2024. Selected pictures will be published later that week on the BBC News website's In Pictures section.
