Who cares if winter lasts a hundred years when it’s this beautiful?
Loch Lubnaig, Perthshire
This beautiful loch looks even more magical when it's blanketed in snow. This stunning photo was taken in February 2011 at the end of one of the coldest winters since records began.

Falls of Dochart, Killin, Stirling
The Falls of Dochart run through the small town of Killin in Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. In summer the falls send up a misty spray as the waters crash into the rocks; in winter they're reduced to a frozen trickle.

Carn nan Sac, Càrn a' Gheòidh, Aberdeenshire
Càrn a' Gheòidh sits 3199 feet above the wildfowl-filled Loch Vrotachan, which may explain why it's called "Hill of the Goose" in Gaelic. Climbers walk along a ridge known as Carn nan Sac to reach the summit.

Loch Turret, Perthshire
If it weren't for Loch Turret, Famous Grouse fans would be very disappointed. The loch supplies water to Glenturret distillery in Perthshire, which provides some of the whisky that makes up the famous blend.
