WINTER can be a tough time to find the motivation to get out there and experience the wonder of our natural landscapes.
As the cold sets in, don’t let it deter you from picking up your camera and capturing some beautiful winter shots.
This image was taken by Mail journalist Victoria Stone-Meadows at Emerald Lake Park.
The Mail is asking all the region’s passionate shutterbugs to get out in the amazing surrounds and email their images to editor@mailnewsgroup.com.au.
Feel free to let us know about your inspiration behind the image, or photography techniques you may have tried.
