We see a lot of amazing images from
Antarctica, some with jaw-dropping
glaciers and
icebergs, others with
cuddlier subjects like penguins. Seeing the greener side of Antarctica is rarer, as we tend to envision the continent as perennially covered in ice and snow. While no trees and few leafy plants grow there, you can still see green fields like the one above captured by Flickr user
SummitVoice1 on some of the sub-Antarctic islands. The almost plush animal-like chinstrap
penguins pop against the background of green grass and white feathers.
Add your unusual travel photos to the
Gadling Flickr pool and you may see one featured as a future
Photo of the Day.

This year I got the best deals ever on the gifts I bought. I got everything from this amazing penny auction site, ( http://tinyurl.com/TopBargains ) I didn't have to waste any time on lines at a mall, I didn't have to pay for shipping, I didn't have to pay for gas to go shopping, and I got prices so low that you wouldn't believe them. I got my son an 16GB iPad for less than $100, my husband a $250 gift card for Home Depot for $63, and in general got better gifts for everyone than I could ordinarily afford. I'll never pay retail again when I can easily save over 50% from my penny auction site.

While the penguins are absolutely adorable , are you sure that's grass? It looks more like moss to me.
