Walking down from the summit of Mt Hotham on a day, I’d been watching this break in the cloud open and close as it moved across the horizon, some what a chance image. It existed for maybe 20 or 30 seconds before closing up again.
This image is of a very steep slope off The Razorback near Mt.Hotham toward Mt.Feathertop. You can clearly see the effects of both the weather and gravity on the paterned snow. It is amazing how tough the snowgums are, and the places they can survive. ~ / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
Taken on the summit of Mt.Higginbotham near Mt.Hotham this shows snow that has been carved into wonderful patterns by the strong wind that blows over the top. ~ / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
Taken from near Mt.Hotham, this panorama shows a lot of significant parts of the Victorian alpine region. The Razorback extending across the image to Mt.Feathertop just right of center. Mt.Buffalo in the distance on the far left under the rays of the late day sun, The Fainters in sunlight right of center, and Mt.Loch just behind the ski lifts. ~~ Show Image & Location On A Map / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
Taken on Mt.Higginbotham at Mt.Hotham the cloud had just thinned enough toward the sun enough to allow a soft but distinct shadow to be cast by the snowgum onto the fresh snow. ~ / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
A fine day is about to turn very cold and snowy. The sun coming in across Mt.Hotham was soon enveloped by the storm front, requiring a hasty retreat back along the freshly made trail soon after these four shots were taken. __ This panorama was taken not far from, and about 30 minutes after this shot . ~~ Show Image & Location On A Map / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
Looking due west from Mt.Hotham a setting sun gave a nice contrast to the pure white snow slopes. ~ / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
This photo was taken looking Due west from Mt.Higginbotham at Mt.Hotham resort just as a storm was coming in. Fresh snow had recently fallen so it was a real winter wonderland! / / This shot was taken not far from, and about 30 minutes before this panorama . / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
This is technically a Scarlet Robin, though it is often referred to as (the Australian) Robin Redbreast. This image was take on the Great Alpine Rd near Mt.Hotham at the start of the Razorback. It shows a beautiful Red Robin atop a red snow pole. / ~ / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
This shot was actually slightly overexposed, which allowed the snow gum that has a dusting of fresh snow to come out in a more ghostly grey, with detail in the trunk retained. The surrounding snow and sky however wasn’t completely washed out, and the slight detail and contrast there allows you to just discern its place relative to the snow and this sky. / ~ / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
Sometimes it is good to stop and look back at where you have come from. This trail through the otherwise pristine cover of fresh snow actually made a shot where there wasn’t one before. The line beside part of the footprints was from a lazily carried tripod left to drag through the snow. / ~ / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature
This was taken looking due West from the village at Mt.Hotham. There were clouds at many different heights, including some very low overhead, which in turn meant the were all illuminated in different ways by the setting sun. / ~ / Browse Images by Category : Snow Landscape Nature

An Australian snowgum survives bushfire and snow. This was taken late in the day at JB Plain, near Dinner Plain on Mount Hotham, Victoria, Australia. There were bushfires through here a couple of summers ago.

A wonderful snow season and brilliant sunset light up Mt Feathertop. Shot taken in August 2008.
While driving around the tracks of Mount Hotham with Jared and the family I was saddened to see the same scene I had witnessed this time last year – dead Ghost Gums for as far as the eye can see. Ravaged by wildfires some years ago, these trees do not regenerate by growing new leaves and branches like most gums, instead they must begin a slow process of regrowth from the roots deep below the parched soil. Thankfully, that regrowth has been allowed to continue and it appears to be 30cm or so more than last year. How fragile our environment is!
Taken at Mt Hotham in the Victorian Alps. This image has been accepted into the Al-Thani and Austrian Supercircuit international competitions and has been printed in the Austrian catalogue in 2008. and it also got a half page print in the 2008 Al Thani international competition catalogue. Nikon D50 18-200mm VR lens. HDR image made of 3 shots 2 stops apart. Tripod used because the light level was so low. The original images were partially blended back in over the HDR shot.
