It's that time again, $50 guess the photo contest is back! Islands this time

[theking]

I visited these islands so guess what islands they are. First PH member with the right guess wins $50 in a form of gift card or money order. The prize will be mailed to the winner via USPS Priority Mail (*NO EXCEPTION*). Admins and Mods are eligible to participate like the rest of the PH members.

Rules: One guess per member. The contest will end on Friday, May 5th, 2023 at 10PM central time zone (Minnesota time) and hopefully a winner will be announced at that time as well like the past winners.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! :

Anacapa Island, my final answer 

Sorry, got busy so little late to reveal the winner but...better late than never..

Although I was looking for the keywords, "Channel Islands", ...Duma's answer, "Anacapa Island" is part of the Channel Islands so close enough IMO...

Therefore, Duma is a two time WINNER!

CONGRATS!!! 

Duma, I will PM you shortly to see what kind of prize you want.

THANK YOU ALL FOR PLAYING!   

Here's a stock photo of Anacapa Island for those that have not been there:

yeh, I won again.  Speech time


Yall noticed how this game started on April 27.   I did not reply till may 4th.  Gotta give people a chance to get first guess too ya know? 

Even then, I first chose the wrong island and gave people more time to guess. 

The california coast, to my knowledge has only 3 of these islands that is a landmark.  There could be more I dunno but one in southern cali, catalina island, this channel island in ventura county and the one up north in sf, the farallon island.  Catalina island, you can go on it, I don't know much about this channel island but for sure the farallon island is off limit to the general public.  You will need to apply for a special permit to board and usually it is reserved for scientist. 

The clue that puts me onto this island is this picture here.  If you match up the box looking house next to the lighthouse, you can see the similarities. 



I chose to donate the proceed to a friend that just lost her job.

Happy to see a winner! 

Also awesome that you're helping a friend in need out!
