7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #31 – winner announcement!
@mibreit-photo Australian Monday entry:
Wharariki Beach near Farewell Spit in the upper north of New Zealand's South Island is a spectacular location. You have dunes, sea stacks, caves and a beautiful countryside. It's a bit of a drive up there but totally worth it. A caravan park is just 1km walking distance from the beach.

This is another photo from my trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico last month. On one of the days, we chartered a boat for the day that took us to a private island for snorkeling, paddle boarding, swimming, and kayaking. This shot was just as we left the harbor in PV as we passed all the boats near the marina. Definitely a wonderful day of fun!
Oh, I just love Peuerto Vallarta! Thank you for this image, brings back great memories!
Born of a giant.
We all know that whales are the largest inhabitants of our planet. But there are times when they are small and defenseless.
And even if the whale just born can be 2-3 meters in length, but it still can not do anything by itself. He depends on everything in his life from his mother. She feeds it, protects and helps to keep afloat. In fact, unlike a large whale, the baby can not hold his breath for long. Quickly gets tired. And then just lie down on the back of the mother.
I was lucky to watch the newly born humpback whale on Tonga.
Some otens of whales every year sail there in summer, so that in warm and calm waters such babies were born.
Such a magical shot. This would be such an awesome experience.
Thank you!
Wow stunning! What an amazing entry!
Thanks)
This is a magical moment, are these humpback whales?
Yes, it's humpback whale
Absolutely lovely photographies, man! Great series of photo challenges you're doing, man! Definitely best collection of pics on /photography on Steemit to date. The rest is trash. Good job! =)
Antarctica is like nowhere else on the planet. Its sheer cliffs offer an amazing backdrop to the beautiful fauna that live in it's icy waters. We visited late in the season, which is a great time to spot humpback whales fattening themselves up before their long migration north.
Wonderful! Thank you so much for your contribution.
We have spent two weeks this winter in a warm Sagres in Algarve region of Portugal. Algarve has a magnificent coastline. Praia do Martinhal was one of the closest to our house, so I had been there several times trying to catch the right conditions. That morning was windy with the lovely clouds and beautiful colors of sunrise.
Just wow! Tremendous image. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today. Tomas
I will soon share an article on this extraordinary meeting made in Maratua Island, still in Borneo. Certainly one of the most important memories in my adventure of diver as much for the meeting with this wall of barracudas as for the very particular diving strategy in a very hectic pass exit. In the meantime I propose this photograph for the photo contest @czechglobalhosts Tuesday - Antarctica + the world's oceans
D300 - 10-24mm

Thank you so much for your submission! What a tremendous image. Tomas
Nice reminder. Thank you.
There is nothing more relaxing than watching the sun slowly hiding behind the ocean in a far distance while listening to the sound of the waves.
Being the witness of the changing colours and the last rays before enjoying the beautiful night sky and it's stars.
Location: Darwin, Australia.
What a tremendous image! Thank you so much for sharing. Tomas
This is the entrance to the Lemaire Channel near the Antarctic. It connects the Kiev Peninsula in the mainland's Graham Land with Booth Island. It's a famous passage for cruise ships in these regions and a wonderful sight.
I am happy to see an image from Antarctica! A place that not many of us have been to:)...
Thank you very much. I was 3 weeks down there and it is really amazing
Sunset on Railay Beach in Thailand. Every evening the sky and the Andaman sea present a show with their own interpretation of the sunset. If you are lucky and visit the Krabi province when the conditions are right, you can swim in this beach with the bio-luminescent plankton, the small creatures that give you a slightly tingling sensation all over your body. At night, you just lie in the water, splashing it and moving around and you will see it just glow and sparkle, like in a dream.
What a gorgeous sunset! Thank you so much for sharing. Tomas
Winter colourful sunset at Curonian Spit, Lithuania. The coast of the Baltic Sea. Very interesting cloud formations and frozen coastline with a lot of small pieces of ice thrown out by the waves
Used very low shooting point and closer view to make a feeling that this piece of ice is really huge, though actually it was not :)
Enjoy it!

So cool! That ice does look gigantic. And the sun fitting perfectly right in the ice gap!
Nicely played!
