In winter, nature takes on a new, almost mystical guise. Stripped bare, its bones are revealed and its delicate beauty exposed. Vivid summer hues drain away, fading to sepia brown and inky black, focusing the eye on shape and texture and encouraging us to slow down and appreciate the breathtaking beauty and detail of nature. Experience the tranquil beauty and stillness of the coldest months of the year through incredible images of every continent. Winter is December, January, February in the Northern Hemisphere and June, July and August in the Southern Hemisphere. The concept of winter in European languages is associated with the season of dormancy. In Persian culture, the winter solstice is called Yalda meaning birth and it has been celebrated for thousands of years. It is referred to as the eve of the birth of Mithra, who symbolised light, goodness and strength on earth.

With stunning photography Winter is a lively display of this icy season across the globe.
