		<title>Isla Genovesa</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The third stop on our trip was at Genovesa Island.  This was the longest sail we&#8217;d have to do on the trip, and was the worst nights sleep any of us experienced.  Our boat was comfortably sized for the 16 passengers plus crew, however during long open ocean crossings, the engine noise and the rocking made [...]]]></description>

		<title>Santa Fe Island and Caleta Tortuga Negra</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our second stop was small islet called Santa Fe off of the larger island of Santa Cruz.  This one was similar in geography to yesterday&#8217;s stop, but it had the largest variety of prickly pear cactus I&#8217;ve ever seen.  Normally they grow on the ground like shrubs, but these had evolved into tree like plants.  Their only [...]]]></description>

		<title>Isla Lobos, Galapagos</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 
The first stop on the Galapagos trip was a small little island just off the coast of Isla Santa Cruz.  It&#8217;s not the most spectacular island, but for a group of tourists who are very eager to get their first wildlife experience, it is in just about the perfect location.  After leaving the harbor, it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Baghdad&#8217;s International Zone</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After months of sitting in the same location in Victory Base, I finally had the opportunity to get out of the office, and make a brief trip to the International Zone in the center of Baghdad.  The IZ was once the main hub of the US occupational government, but has been slowly turned back over [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hluhluwe Umfolozi Game Reserve</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ Our final stop after leaving Swaziland was a lesser known park back in Zululand in South Africa called Hluhluwe Umfolozi.  To be honest, at this point in the trip I think a good many of us were starting to suffer from &#8220;Africa Fatigue&#8221;, where things that got us excited on the first few days wouldn&#8217;t even get [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hlane Royal National Park</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Cutting thru Swaziland on the way back to J&#8217;berg was something I wasn&#8217;t expecting at all, but turned out to be one of the highlights of this trip.  Crossing over the border, the difference between the third world conditions of Mozambique and the 2nd world Swaziland was immediately apparent.   The roads were in better condition, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Diving in Inhambane</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ Our next stop was another beach town farther south on the Mozambique coastline called Inhambane.  This was another fishing village (are there any other types on the coast?) that was pretty well known for its whale watching opportunities.    Whale watching is one of those  activities that are the bread and butter of many tour companies.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Vilanculos Beach Holiday</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After four days of bouncing over some of the worst roads I&#8217;ve seen in the world (I thought nothing could beat Cambodia!), we finally arrived at our coastal destination in the town of Vilankulo.  This was originally a small fishing village, but its proximity to the Bazaruto Archipelago has turned it into quite the backpacker [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bushbashing thru Mozambique</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Immediately upon leaving the South African side of the International Transfrontier Peace Park, the landscape changed dramatically.  We&#8217;d gotten used to seeing wildlife fairly regularly along the road..mostly impala and other antelope species, but as soon as we crossed over into Mozambique, they were no where to be found.  According to Neil, our guide, during [...]]]></description>

		<title>Northern Kruger Park</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our second day game driving covered the northern areas of Kruger park.  Conditions were better today, and I felt more confidient with the new lens.   The intital excitement of being back in Africa was starting to fade, which meant that I could concentrate on good shots instead of just trying to take a snapshot of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Southern Kruger Park</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Driving thru Kruger Game Park in an overland truck is a bit of an exercise in frustration for the photographer.  Due to the rigors of the truck schedule, and the sheer size, it is not really possible to control the time of your visit, nor do you have the flexibility to move around for the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Al Faw Palace at Night</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the three months I&#8217;ve been here, I&#8217;ve never seen the exterior lights of the palace turned on after dusk.  On the 4th however, the I Corps band played a concert for the base, and the lights were turned on. 
 This is an HDR image, composed of three images bracketed at 1.3 stops each way from [...]]]></description>

		<title>Camp Slayer Tour</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Since I&#8217;ve gotten to Iraq, I&#8217;ve been living on an area called the Victory Base Complex.  This is a group of several Army &#8220;camps&#8221; with various patriotic sounding names such as Victory and Liberty, along with several others named after either individual soldiers, or units that served with distinction.  Camp Slayer is one of those, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pettingell Peak</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ 

Pettingell Peak is the high point of Grand Country in Colorado, and a great 13&#8242;er near Herman Lake. Getting to the top requires a bit of class 3 rock scrambling and is definitely not advised for those who have an extreme fear of heights or exposure. The weather was pretty nice for most of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Emperor penguins!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the five years that I&#8217;ve been privileged to come to the Antarctic, I&#8217;ve never been lucky enough to see an emperor penguin up close in the wild. I may have spotted one standing alone on an ice floe while I was on the NBP several years ago, but it was so far in the [...]]]></description>
