The snappers of striking photographs of the Macarthur region have been honoured in this year's Macarthur Nature Photography Competition.
The annual competition, which is run by Camden, Campbelltown and Wollondilly Councils, encouraged people to submit their most striking, engaging and enticing images of local native flora, wildlife and natural scenery taken from within the Macarthur area.
Entrants submitted photographs into one of three categories: Caring for Country, Threatened Species and Australian Native Plants, Animals and Pollinators.
Mayor of Camden, Cr Ashleigh Cagney, said the entries were of an incredibly high standard this year.
"We're incredibly blessed to have such beautiful nature all around us in the Macarthur region and sometimes the snap of a camera can capture that like nothing else," she said.
"That was definitely the case with our entries this year. Congratulations to all of the winners but also well done to everybody who entered."
