Lets see your Explorers exploring!
I'm planning a trip down to South America at the end of Summer and I'm really looking forward to snapping photos of my new Explorer II outside its natural habitat. Traveling around the Southern Hemisphere will provide some beautiful backdrop for wrist pics. But until I have a chance to fill up my photo album lets see all of your Explorers. The more extreme the background the better.

Love the explorer, but this is about as close to exploring as I do.

Here is my old 16570 w/ rubber strap on safari in Namibia. A two meter spitting cobra jumped into my land cruiser and we had to "negotiate" him out.

How did you manage to talk that Cobra out of the vehicle?
He only wanted to ride 'Shot Gun'........

Thanks.

The mobile is a Samsung Note 4 - and I use mainly the following apps if I want to post-process the image on the mobile itself: Autodesk Pixlr and Snapseed. Both apps for Android mobile.
