Inquirer readers were on the move this holiday season, beginning with Thanksgiving adventures and continuing into the new year.
Some journeyed as far as Africa and the Middle East, while others stayed in this hemisphere and still others just stepped out their front doors, looking for what they usually miss as they go about their daily lives.
One thing all did: They had a camera to capture the moment. And they entered the Winter Travel Photo Contest.
Today we offer you the finalists, as chosen by a three-judge panel of Inquirer editors, in six categories: Buildings and Architecture; Animals; Holiday Sights; What I Did on My Winter Vacation; Landscapes; and Sunrise/Sunset. More than 130 entries were received, and all the entries can be found online at www.philly.com/travel. On philly.com/travel, you will have the opportunity to vote for the overall winner of the contest. The winner will be announced here on Feb. 19, and that person will receive $100.
