Not sure what the rules are here for linking to such things, but I saw it on the National Geographic site and thought some people might be interested in entering.

Wow, wouldn't that be the trip of a lifetime? Spending two weeks in Australia learning from a National Geographic Photographer would be a dream come true for me. Too bad it's open to residents of the USA only.

Good luck to those that decide to enter!

Ok I entered. I won't win, but maybe I diluted everyone elses chances. LOL
Just kidding. Would be great for someone here to win.

I entered, even though it is basically data mining. I'm going to win! Or maybe not....

Well, mine must be the lucky one. Not only am I a subscriber to National Geographic, but the site was just closed after my entry indicating I won. Don't worry, though, I'll post my pictures when I get back.

BTW, I took the liberty of withdrawing all your names from consideration to ease the suffering of losing.

Ro, expect a knock on your door from the United States Postal Police. It is apparent that you've stolen my tickets. If you give up now, it will go much easier on you. In fact, I'll let you go with me.

Y'all are so funny. I'm posting this from an internet cafe in Melbourne. Had a rough day today, having to use "L" glass to subdue a crocodile that attacked me while out shooting kangaroo. Fortunately, I was able to extend the push-pull zoom (another advantage for that design) and beat the crocodile into submission.

Crocodile stew is on tonight's menu, courtesy of the Crocodile-L lens, the 100-400.

We were going to put it on the rotisserie, but it was too long.
