PHOTO CHALLENGE - WEEK SIX!
It's hard to believe my PolarTREC adventure is nearing an end. Sadly, this is the last photo challenge. So, in honor of this amazing adventure, I've asked - our now famous - photographers to send me their 'FAVORITE PHOTOS'.
And, I have to tell you... we've saved the best for last! It's going to be difficult to select from these submissions!
Again...before we get to the new PIC'S - you can still vote for the first five challenges:
- Week one - 'Flora Flicks'. This journal also tells you about the contest.
- Week two - '30 Minute Flicks'
- Week three - 'PUP PIC'S'
- Week four - 'Historic Huts'
- Week five - Seal faces
Results
Week one - 'FLORA FLICKS' - Photo number 103 has pulled into the lead.
Week two - '30 MINUTE FLICKS' - 203 is still in the lead.
Week three - 'PUP PIC'S' - 302 has come from behind.
Week four - 'HISTORIC HUTS' - we have a new leader 409.
Week five - 'SEAL FACES' - the top 2 were 506 and 503 (that one was mine - Yea!)
Are you up for the challenge? Here are their pictures.
We are titling this challenge 'FAVORITE PHOTOS' - and here are the entries.
