As we enter the month of March, we have also come to the end of the February Photo Contest. Everything about this month's contest was exciting.

Starting with the theme for this month - Colours On A Trek. We wanted trekkers to show the most colourful side of the mountains they had seen. It could be photos of flowers, mountains, green meadows, forests, flowers, bird life, animals, or a mix of all of these elements

And we received some stunning entries. Shortlisting 10 nominations from 1050 photos were tough. And choosing the winners was tougher.

After multiple rounds finally, we have the top 3 photos. Here are the Winners of the Trek Photography contest for February 2023.

Winner
