The islands have been eroded to form countless natural caves and arches. There are colonies of thousands of seabirds such as pelicans and penguins, and you will also see hundreds of sealions and often schools of dolphins.

You can't see these from the ground so Chris and I went up in the smallest plane I have ever been in to see them. The photos here don't do the pictures justice, they are huge and there is no way you could tell what you were doing from the ground - interesting considering these have been around for hundreds of years before our technology.

Moscow metro stations : The metro stations in Moscow needed a photo gallery of their own. The stations have often been called "the people's palaces", for their elegant designs and lavish and profuse use of marble, mosaics, sculptures and chandeliers. Built during Stalin's rule, these metro stations were supposed to display the best of Soviet architecture and design and show how privileged the lifestyle of the Russian people was.
