  1. Amazing photos, Harry! I shared some of them on my Facebook fan page.
    But you did not share any location info. It should be nice if you at least share the country in which the photo was taken. Even better is to geotag the photo, which you can do using the "Geotag this photo" button.

    Note that by sharing your photo with more complete details, it will show up in the species browser, the global wildlife map and in search. It helps people find your photo much better, plus it delivers a far more educational photo. Check out our photo sharing tutorial for more information:
