It would be great if you can visit their blogs and appreciate their awesome photography skills with some upvotes.

However, the winner is only one and that is for me picture posted by @irvinesimages with the following entry:

Rain And Shine Combine. It's one of natures marvels, to see rain falling through bright sunlight, which gives the landscape a special luminous vibrancy. The beautiful Courthouse Rock stands tall in the morning light and certainly does justice to the land. Located in Sedona Arizona USA, Courthouse Rock is one of Sedona's iconic rock formations.

What a great contribution from @irvinesimages to the photo challenge! I have visited @irvinesimages blog and upvoted his post called The Flower Full Moon. @irvinesimages amazing entry from Arizona is qualifying for the weekly challenge where it will be competing against the previous and upcoming winners of the week:

@worldcapture Asian Sunday entry:

Mount Everest, Nepal. About 1 month ago I took a airplane which circled around the Himalayan mountains including the Mt. Everest. It was by far my most exciting flight and I still can't find the right words to describe this stunning mountain landscape. Breathtaking!

@bluebottlefilms Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans entry:

The clarity of the water at my local marine sanctuary is amazing at the moment. I love it when the conditions are like this and have been getting down there as much as possible. The northern beaches of Sydney are so lucky to have Cabbage Tree Bay on it's doorstep!

@vcclothing African Wednesday entry:

When on safari in Etosha Namibia, water holes are always the place to see wildlife. It is a very dry area and not much water around. Here we saw some ostrich and springbok hanging out and having a drink at a water hole.

Line of houses in the center of Barcelona, Spain. You can also see the famous Casa Batlló House here - one of the city´s iconic landmarks designed by Antoni Gaudí. The local name for the building is Casa del Ossos (House of Bones) as it has a visceral, skeletal organic quality.
