A village has been taken over by popular sci-fi figures replicated in scarecrow form, including E.T. and the Daleks from Doctor Who.
More than 50 installations are on display for the annual Wray Scarecrow Festival in Lancashire.
One of the organisers, John Gordon, said: "There are quite a few E.T.s around - on the bike, of course.
"We've got a number of Daleks, characters from Star Wars, and there's an amazing one from Planet Of The Apes."

Mr Gordon, 72, said some animated scarecrows have also been created, including a Dalek.
He said the offerings have all been a surprise as "people don't tell anybody else what they're up to" and the village "really throws itself into it".
Mr Gordon added: "There was one person who had his family eating yoghurts for two weeks so they could get the all pots to stick on a Dalek."
