They ask people to send them their best picutres of the trip. The pics enter a competition where the winner gets to win another trip... They also use these pics to illustrate their travel brochure ;-) If you are interested to view the competition winners: http://www.intrepidtravel.com/winners.php?showme=2004PhotoComp Interestingly enough most of the pictures show people....

It could be of a theme rather than of a place, not neccessarily big prizes (although our sponrsors might chip in). For some ideas on topics, see my albums - I feel ive been competing against myself a bit! A picture without people or animals is just a digital painting to me, could have been taken by anyone anytime. Travelling to me is about meeting strange people and new faces and places, so 95% of my photo archive has people in it, sadly also travellers. You can be assured that every picture you take with people (essential natives naturally) or animals or extreame weather, is unique and can never be exactly reproduced again. --- Rudolf "Rangutan" Graspointner Reply    Reply with quote    Contact rangutan   ta-shy Joined: Jun 02 Points: 4110 Posts: 170 Posted: 2004-10-23 10:50:00    Hey there! Good health and high spirits! I know what you mean about pics with people. Check out my pics I have many with the local people; Haiti, Dogon village being the most numerous. I don't really enjoy looking at pics with tourists in them or pics with members in them for that matter. I like the interesting things that are a rare sight to see. have a day!
