15 Of The World’s Most Gorgeous Winter Landscapes

With the falling snow, frozen lakes and hazy mornings, winter gives an absolutely opposite character to landscapes which might otherwise be colorful, lively and upbeat during the summers. There are those who find winters gloomy and depressing, but then there are those who look for joys in the snow and absolutely stunning scenery that the roads, parks, lakes and mountains become.

Here we present you fifteen of the world’s most gorgeous winter landscapes from our collection. These photographers have given a new meaning and a new perspective to otherwise monochromatic winter landscapes.
