PHOTO COMPETITION

Passengers are invited to enter our photos for a “South America & Antarctica Photo Competition”.  There’s a guy named Jeff who takes better pictures than anyone, so he’ll probably win in all categories.  Yet, I want to enter because I’m a competitive person, and Bill and I have taken a number of photos, too.  It should also be fun!  Each guest can enter 1 photo per category:  Wildlife, Landscape, Life and Frozen.  In other words, Bill and I can enter 2 photos per category.  Here are the photos (in these categories) that I like the most so far – please give me your thoughts and input; I have until 2/9 to submit our entries.

    I have been enjoying your commentary and photos. I do also look at jeff's but you often show different aspects of the same city and both are very good. My chice from those you posted is:- Wildlife - Iguazu falls 261 and Stanly 188; Landscape - Iguazu falls 239 & 410; Life- Rio 171 & 555; Frozen - Gerlache 170 & 319.
    Good luck in the comp.

    WILDLIFE: The Magellanics that look like they’re holding hands and looking around furtively to make sure no one notices them; the Kings (Falklands 150) – would be great if you could crop the two penguins with the cropped heads.
    LANDSCAPE: Iguazu (246)
    LIFE: the man sitting on the red stepped wall; the little girl.
    FROZEN: Gerlache 046 (might need to fix the horizon); the close up of the ice.
    Good luck.

    Wildlife: Man with the hat & Penguins holding hands (or maybe the lemur? family)
    Landscape: Falls with vapor in valley & Hotel or Palace
    Life: McDonalds (has to be the tackiest McDonalds) & buildings going up the hillside
    Forzen: Reflection photo & Blue ice cave
    Remember, the fun is in playing the game, and what adventures you have had getting these pictures!
