What a couple of weeks! We launched GuardianWitness last week with a variety of assignments, including stories of how you’ve been affected by the UK government cuts, a celebration of Record Store Day and photos of the late start of spring.
The First Cycles of Spring.
Sunday 21st April it was a sunny day on Bexhill Seafront and the first cyclists of the season were taking advantage.
Our first Assignment of the Week, ‘Views of tall buildings’, soared with over 1,600 neck-cricking contributions from around the world. We were especially delighted when the Observer created a gallery and printed a selection of your photos at the weekend.
At the end of last week, we asked you to show us a movie location we've all seen, but never really noticed. You came up trumps, spotting backdrops from A Clockwork Orange, Amelie and Ghostbusters.
It will come as no surprise to hear that you went crazy for sleeping dogs. Special props to Immi the Pug, who we think is a real star.
We love your naughty kittens too. Whether they’re demolishing your Valentine's Day bouquet or overheating your laptop, there’s still time to share your fluffy little monsters with us.
Finally, thanks to the British Antarctic Survey, we’ve received contributions from every major landmass on Earth!
British Antarctic Surveys New Station on the Brunt Ice Shelf
The Red Module is the largest of 8 modules that make up the New Scientific Station which was officially openned Febrary 2013. Currently there are 13 people overwintering at Halley this year.
We've got lots more to tell you about – but it'll have to wait till next week. In the meantime, don’t forget to follow us on Twitter!
