Rolling Stone Group: Local Expert Posts: 4691 Joined: 28-October 07 From: England Member No.: 101826	The two that stole my attention were Braided Girl and Starfish. I really liked Starfish, but went for Braided Girl because the picture is captured beautifully and the expression on the little girls face says a thousand words. -------------------- In Search Of ...........

There are some travellers with a great 'eye' -------------------- Have you read my latest blog???? check it out : http://www.travelpod.com/members/kamyp

It's difficult to capture some of the more personal memories when travelling and getting caught up in the backpacker thing. This photo does just that...what is she thinking I wonder? -------------------- A Round the World Blog - Spanglish Steps!

It supports every vivid descriptive I've heard about how beautiful New Zealand really is. It's just so green. Truly spectacular. I love that photo too. -------------------- ~Susie 'Yesterday's the past and tomorrow's the future. Today is a gift - which is why they call it the present.'

FYI, it looks like alllllllllot I have just seen in Northern Ireland... that place was ridiculously green. Anyway, I am voting for the starfish, I love it, it reminds me of a disney film...

I ended up going with the waterfalls...it's so clear and the colors so bright. I loved the starfish and braided girl too, though. -------------------- ~Kit California Local Expert Visit my travel blogs: http://www.travelpod.com/members/kitkatgo
