Houston, we have a problem… Seems like we need another poll. Paulette, Bill, it is between the two of you now. -

Nope, because I do not decide who wins the gold, silver or bronze… The contributors do. -

Actually, I would have wanted to make an even tighter selection, like only 3 finalists (after all, most podiums only allow 3 people to stand on it ), but I gave up halfway… -

Hint #1 The image has been taken with a 24mm lens mounted on a full frame camera so we were pretty close, I don't think a plane would have come that close to the cliff. Hint #2 I do not use drones…

June challenge - national parks scenery (pure nature)
Olivier Parent replied to Olivier Parent's topic in Let's talk about pics
As many animals as you want Paulette! As long as they do not belong to the Homo sapiens species of course… But the pictures must show their environment, the landscape surrounding them, so no close up shot. -

Well, we can extend to State parks and Biosphere reserves if that is what you mean. There are so many kinds of "protected areas" depending on the country that I have to restrict in some way… National parks seemed to be the most common worldwide designation. -

First, I wish to thank Colin for the last challenge! This month, I would like to see pictures of our beautiful national parks landscapes. But only "pure nature" images, meaning by that no human interaction visible in the images (no human, human construction, signpost, road, vehicle or anything like that). Only footprints accepted . Each member may submit up to 3 pictures, the images must be available on Alamy. The challenge will end on 30th June @ midnight (Paris time). Below 3 examples. Denali national park - Alaska (USA) Ecrins national park (France) Koh Phi Phi national park (Thailand) -
Thank you Colin! Congratulations to all the finalists. I will try to find a decent new challenge topic ASAP.
