Ten winning photos will receive an upvote from me from which I will pick one winner that will receive extended publicity in my post tomorrow morning.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Asian Sunday week #17 – winner announcement!
@narchuk Asian Sunday entry:
At the Philippines I go to dive, most of the day I spend in the water or on a boat. Do not forget the night dive. As a result, I have very little time for sunrises and sunsets.
This time we returned from diving, and I watched the sun go down into the ocean. It happened at the moment when the boat hit the shore. I had to jump right into the water together with the underwater box. I did not have time to get another camera.
I was lucky. In addition to the beautiful sunset, I saw a turtle swimming alongside. A few minutes before it was dark, we swam together.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #17 – winner announcement!
@mibreit-photo Australian Monday entry:
Here's my favorite photo from New Zealand. I took it a year ago in Tongariro National Park. It was quite cloudy as we arrived in the Park and we couldn't see the peaks yet. But I hiked to Tama Lakes anyways, hoping for a change. As the clouds then broke and revealed Mount Ruapehu it was an awesome sight.

@axeman Tuesday of Antarctica and world´s oceans entry:
Volcanoes in Baltic? What? You would say impossible? Well, that depends on the point of view in fact. Shot at very cold winter evening (if remember right was some -20 degrees) and with very low shooting point and extra wide lens. So visually its really looks like a volcano :D Enjoy the scenery!

This is sunset inside the Imire Rhino and Wildlife Conservation in Wedza, Zimbabwe. Wedza is about two hours away from the capital of Harare. This conservancy does wonderful work helping to protect the wildlife of Zimbabwe. I was lucky enough to spend a night here and snapped this photo of the sunset.
What a beautiful sunset! Stunning.
Another frame from our trip to Egypt. Shot from the upper deck of cruise ship early morning in Luxor.
Just wake up thinking to make some sunrise photos and colors appeared to be simply insane
Those dots you can see far away are rising air balloons
Enjoy the scenery :)

Those colors are just insane! Thank you so much for sharing. Tomas
Silhouettes of wildebeest are framed by the white dust of the dry Nossob river bed in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park between South Africa and Botswana. The park is dry and barren but the richness of the animal life here is unsurpassed. A really amazing place to visit. We caught these wildebeest on their daily afternoon trudge to one of the waterholes along the dry river bed.
Beautiful. Love the dreamy feel of this picture.
Very mysterious, I like that!
As the drought becomes more apparent in the South African winter, two male Zebras compete in a dramatic display of kicking, biting and rearing up onto their hind legs. It was a great sighting to witness over half an hour. The result of such behavior led to a big dust cloud every time they attempted to establish dominance. This shot was taken in the famous Kruger National Park, which is a compulsory visit should you be traveling to this exquisite part of the world.
Fabulous image! What a capture. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today. Tomas
This time I chose Seychelles for Africa's photo of the week.
It was our last day of the holidays. We were just walking along the beach, also saw two small sharks playing, than when we found spot we liked, we waited for one last, but not least colourful sunset.
Thank you so much for your continued support! Stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today. Tomas
Thank you for organizing great photo challenge! I am glad that I can participate and compete among so many amazing photographs. Have a lovely day :)
For that I love diving in Sudan. Corals, fish, clean water and lack of people. You can see the Red Sea in the way that he saw Cousteau. Diving in Sudan is deep. Dark blue water creates a special atmosphere. You can sit on the edge of the cliff and watch the swarming flocks of fish.
Great photo yet again! I really love your underwater photos... respect!
I love them too! @narchuk your underwater photos are simply amazing!
Thanks!
I just show amazing marine creatures)
Amazing as always! Tomas.
A photo of Espargos, the largest city in Sal, an small arid island of the Cape Verde archipelago (west Africa), well known for its white sandy beaches and crystal clear water.
Nice shot! I only heard about Cape Verde because of Cesária Évora. Would love to visit these islands one day =)
Worth it! The are islands are full of culture and amazing people!
Thanks for comment @itchyfeetdonica
Cheers!
Thank you so much for your participation. Stay tuned for the winner announcement coming soon. Tomas

This beautiful island belongs to the Canary Islands and is located west of Africa. It offers a wide spectrum of different landscapes with dense green rain forests, beaches and vulcans.
The lighthouse Faro de Fuencaliente is located in the vulcanic southern part of the island. In the nearby "Salinas" they extract salt from the sea water.
