Showcasing Gippsland beauty
Mr Chester said, "The winning images include an electrical storm passing over the Port of Sale, captured by Grant McKillop, a crested tern flying over Lake Tyers beach, photographed by Sue Allison and a very cute, curious echidna peeping out from a tree stump taken by Jessica Owen. All three will receive a hamper of local products from Banksia Fine Foods and a '100% Authentic Gippslander' t-shirt."
Mr Chester said there were about 300 photo entries for the 2025 #lovegippsland calendar, and he was struck by the exceptional quality of the submissions across the board. "This year's theme', Love Where We Live', highlights the incredible beauty and diversity of our region with the 13 images chosen to feature in the calendar showcasing many beautiful places throughout the region, magnificent scenery, native wildlife and iconic Gippsland structures."
