Photo Challenge – Islands

4 Comments

A Word in Your Ear picks some great words for a weekly photo challenge.  This week the word is “islands”.  Here are some pictures from my first, and probably only, cruise.

Cruise 2010 - after St. Thomas into St. Maarten 049

Cruise 2010 - after St. Thomas into St. Maarten 067

Cruise 2010 - after St. Thomas into St. Maarten 405

Cruise 2010 - after St. Thomas into St. Maarten 011

The cruise left Fort Lauderdale and sailed to Puerto Rico, St. Thomas and St. Maarten.  While the scenery was breathtaking, the three weeks following on land still feeling like I was on the ship was a slight deterrent for cruising again.  Next time, I fly, I land, I enjoy….and I don’t have to take sea sickness pills on dry land.

Weekly Photo Challenge – Round

A Word in Your Ear  gives us a weekly photo challenge, which I am coming to love.  It really makes me look back through forgotten photographs and take a much needed stroll down memory lane.  I have only one entry, but this has always been one of my favorite photos.  I love taking pictures of the moon and this was one that turned out better than I expected.

A Word in Your Ear has a weekly photo challenge which I just learned about – this week’s word was cloud.  I love photographing clouds and thought I would participate.

These are a few of my favorites.

 The last one I love because it looks like I live in the mountains – far from it, but at least I can pretend every now and then.
