Mike Edmondson's interest in photography stems from a long connection with the Australian bush and love of the mountains. Mike has spent the best part of his life in the Snowy Mountains skiing, walking to shoot his magnificent and award winning photographs. Mike's camera travels almost everywhere with him as his means of conveying this unique environment for others to enjoy. The physical effort of walking, skiing and snowshoeing into the mountains with camera equipment is more than rewarded by the special moments when the light and mist work their magic on the landscape. Even the wilds of the mountain's weather is no impediment to Mike who has endured the most intense snow storms and winds in order to capture this ancient, peaceful & magical land on film. According to Mike, the mountains replenish the spirit with every encounter and the camera enables him to record these experiences for others to enjoy also. If you want a truly experienced mountain guide, or an expert and renowned photographer to take you bushwalking, snow shoeing or ski touring into the mountains then Mike Edmondson is right for you!
