WinnerWinter bluesNorth-north-west

Dove Lake from Crater Peak is a familiar view, but less so the clear skies and blue waters in winter. Sometimes you get lucky.

I bought a telephoto lens to try my hand at bird photography and discovered it works really well photographing flowers.

WinnerIced delights North-north-west

Mount Field's circuit over Rodway, past The Watcher, down through Newdegate Pass and back via Tarn Shelf is rightly lauded as one of Tasmania's - indeed, Australia's - top day walks. It's been a favourite of mine for at least 45 years. Every visit, something new reveals itself and different perspectives are found. You just have to be careful about where you step when finding them; still, what's a little icy water in the boots compared to being there on such a day?

WinnerThe Pyramid Ribuck

We picked our way up the gorge for an hour, then turned the final corner and saw this majestic pyramid. On the right, we were turned back by a cliff. After dropping down to the left we found a navigable ramp to the top. We nicknamed this place Felicitous Gorge due to our good fortune in finding the ramp - and because Felicity went up it first.

WinnerJackson Creek Track North-north-west

A route that had been bumped from the top of the To Do list for years was finally knocked off early last spring with little snow but with plenty of meltwater around. It turned out to be cold, wet, a little overgrown and absolutely beautiful.

WinnerWinter in the Walls Dylan Colson

I’ve wanted to go and explore the Walls with a solid amount of snow cover for a while. On this trip I decided to go out to Pool of Siloam for sunrise looking at King Davids Peak and this was the view I had. It was hard work in deep snow to get there but I’m happy with the result.

WinnerOn the Warden Head Loop at Ulladulla Iandsmith

Warden Head at Ulladulla has a lighthouse area visited by many, but the significant cliff and rock shelf with its abundant rock pools below is a haven for nature lovers. Nearby is South Pacific Heathland Reserve, another treasure best visited in spring or summer when the wildflowers are in profusion.
