Lumix DC-TZ90 $599 

As the Walk1200km Facebook group can attest, taking photos on walks is a must. We’ll be giving away four Lumix TZ90 cameras over the next 12 months.

But what makes a good photo? We’re looking for images that celebrate walking: beautiful views, happy people, achievement, wildlife. Tip: the best photos  have a clear subject and people make a very compelling subject!
