2nd place: Stephanie from Germany

Not the best pic I took the last year, but I think it's the pic with the most memories of my last Iceland trip in March this year. The whole group started with dinner and suddenly the horse stood there and looked into the livingroom and it seemed to say "I am also hungry, where is my food?". It was so funny and amazing to see this scene, everyone was laughing and I think no one will forget it ;)

3rd place: Jennie from Sweden

This photo is a pure coincidence. As I’m travelling on my own, I had put up my camera so that I could take a “selfie”. When all was in place this puffin landed in front of me and soon after the second you see mid-air. What a peculiar bird, I’m grateful for a very precious moment.
