Mount Feathertop, Alpine National Park, Victoria, Australia
From an early age I've been drawn to the summit of Mount Feathertop, with some of my earliest bush-walks as a child walking up this mountain. On this occasion, I was camped out on Mount Feathertop for five days in early winter and was keen to capture a photograph of the summit from up close. The weather however had other ideas with persistent snow and low cloud, precluding even seeing the summit for the first few days. As the sun set on my final day I was set up in position sure that the weather was finally improving. Briefly the cloud lifted in front of the summit with cloud remaining on the other side creating a dramatic backdrop. However it didn't take too long again for the cloud to return. As I returned to my tent for the night I felt happy to have captured what was a brief moment in the ever changing conditions over the summit of Mount Feathertop.
Mount Feathertop is the second highest mountain in the Australian state of Victoria, rising to 1,922 metres (6,306 ft). It is usually covered in snow from June to September. Unlike most other Victorian mountains, Mount Feathertop has steep summit slopes instead of a rounded summit dome. It is this aspect that makes it great to photograph in winter, as it is the only real Australian alpine 'peak' that gets covered in snow. Snow remaining in the summit gullies in spring gives the appearance of feathers - hence the name "Feathertop".

For nearly 20 years, we
have been supplying our Australian made artworks to homes and workplaces across
Australia and overseas. Watch the video below to learn more about the various options.
Museum quality, archival fine art paper and inks.
As a print only, this requires framing, allowing you to select your own mounting and framing options. The print has an additional 6cm white border around the photo, allowing sufficient room to accommodate various framing choices. Unframed prints come rolled in a protective tube, making them our recommendation for international customers.
We use Hahnemühle Photo Rag® Ultra Smooth, fine art cotton paper. This exceptionally high quality fine art paper is acid free and designed to meet the longevity requirements of galleries and museums.
Each fine art paper print is printed using genuine pigment inks - favoured by galleries and collectors because of their print longevity.
A clean, simple and modern look, suitable for any home.
Your Hahnemühle fine art paper print is mounted and framed in a contemporary shadow box frame (approx 27mm wide x 48mm deep) that is available in white or raw wood.
It is completed with museum grade acrylic (rather than glass) as it is light weight, transports well (doesn't break) and protects against 99% of UV.
Framed prints come ready to hang on your wall. The listed size is for the image itself - the border and frame add approximately 7.5cm to each side of the print (ie 15cm additional length in total).
Frameless, glass like feel. A very modern, yet striking way to display your print.
The photo is printed on metallic paper, creating a 'pearlescent' metallic gloss finish. The print is face mounted onto optically clear, museum grade acrylic which offers 99% UV protection.
The crisp, clean image is backed with treated aluminium, protecting your print from front to back. It is then finished with a diamond edge polisher. This comes ready to hang, with a thin aluminium frame hidden behind the print, so your print can be securely hung on your wall.
The finest standard in photography on canvas. Ready to hang on your wall.
Superior grade canvas, printed with archival inks and laminated for protection. A popular, affordable, lightweight and modern way to enjoy Scott’s photographs on your wall.
100% cotton heavyweight canvas that is the world’s leading fine art canvas. The texture of the canvas creates a 'painterly' feel to the photograph.
The canvas is stretched on a kiln dried Meranti timber frame, offering better resistance to twisting, warping and other defects. Both sides of the timber are profiled, meaning your print sits flat against the wall and shows no visible framing line on the front of the canvas.
The canvas is laminated providing a fully sealed barrier that protects your print against dust, water and inquisitive fingers as well as extra protection from fading, abrasion, bumps and scratches. It can be carefully cleaned with a damp soft cloth.
