My Scholarship entry - Boat delivery to the British Virgin Islands

BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS | Saturday, 12 January 2013 | Views [231] | View Larger Image

Fun in the Sun. After 13 days at sea, it was great to get back onto solid ground and enjoy the ocean from a different setting. This shot was taken while playing amongst the volcanic boulders at The Baths, Virgin Gorda. I think it captures the mood of the day and highlights the importance of not only traveling to amazing places but to enjoy them.

Surfs up, dolphin style. During the delivery we were never truly alone. We had gannets and seagulls following us as well as the occasional whale or flying fish. On this particular day a pod of dolphins surrounded the boat and began surfing the bow waves. I got some great shots but I selected this one because it captures the action from the dolphins perspective. Something you don't normally see

Sun kissed islands. To be honest I wasn't expecting the British Virgin Islands to be so mountainous. They rise steeply out of the depths to around 1700 feet. Consequentially it offers great hiking and amazing ocean views. This is the view looking west towards Great Thatch Island from above Cane Garden Bay. I chose this photo because of the great combination of light and color but it also gives the viewer insight to the local topography and the many small islands dotted around the area.
