People gathered at Lichfield Cathedral last night to remember victims of the Nice attack.
Dean of Lichfield, the Very Reverend Adrian Dorber, said: "Our world is turbulent and frightening just now".
Members of the public were invited to light candles in support and to say prayers for the more than 80 people killed on Thursday night, when a lorry drove into crowds on Bastille day.

I come back from holiday and find more great pictures you've sent in from across Staffordshire and Cheshire.
This first one's from Derek Knapper who say it is of a spider spinning a web at The Foxley pub in Milton, Stoke-on-Trent in front of the full moon.
While BBC Radio Stoke's Perry Spiller took this next one in Stanley, Stoke-on-Trent of raindrops on foxgloves at the weekend - visited by a bee.

Very high UV levels across the Midlands today. Pollen levels remain high too across the region.
