Your entries need to be submitted by the midnight of Central European Time in order to be considered for the challenge with a description of approximately 30 to 50 words. Only one picture to be submitted for a daily photo challenge. The rule number one is to use only personal images. 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. I will also visit his/her blog to upvote one of the most recent posts.

The winner of daily challenge then competes against winners from other continental challenges of the respective week to receive the price of 15 SBD. That will be decided by you based on the dollar value of upvotes of my winning post announcement. The winning weekly picture then automatically enters other rounds for the price of 150 SBD in total.

Please see the winner of Asian Sunday, Australian Monday, Tuesday of Antarctica and world's oceans, African Wednesday and European Thursday to give them your support if you like their image to be the one winning the weekly price and entering the other stages of the 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday - winner announcement!

@bypaul entry post for Asian Sunday is below:

This summer I traveled through Thailand. At the end of my journey I visited the nationalpark Khao sok. It consists mainly of a huge artificial lake which was made 40 years ago. This shot was in the calm of the rising morning mist with the dead trees from 40 years ago poking through the surface of the calm water.

@justdentist entry post for Australian Monday is below:

I want to share this beautiful picture of the Banks Peninsula south of Christchurch with you. We went "Penguin Watching", saw an yellow-eyed penguin and all in all it was one of the most gorgeous day trips during our NZ roundtrip.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and the world’s oceans – winner announcement!

@kuenok entry post of Antarctica and the world’s oceans :

This is a shot taken at Vava'u in the Kingdom of Tonga where humpback whales migrate as far as 5000kms each year from Antarctica to give birth to these wonderful new borns in the warm waters of the Pacific. Once hunted to the brink of extinction for their oil and meat, every new born calf is a reason to celebrate as their numbers are slowly restored. 😊

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday – winner announcement!

@extremejogging African Wednesday entry:

The adult elephants of the family are normally very protective of their babies and are basically always next to them. This little guy was running around exploring... I guess there is always 'that kid' in the family. ;) How cute is this little guy!?

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – European Thursday – winner announcement!

@bypaul European Thursday entry:

I was hiking solo for 2 days. On the second day the trail was much harder than I thought. To get to the last summit I had to climb a very steep wall of gravel and stones. Eventhough I go rockclimbing and therefore am not scared of heights this was scary! The 10kg backpack was always pulling me backwards. In the end I crawled up. As soon as I reached the top I saw this breathtaking scenery!

Crazy Horseshoe Bend - My wife, @tabealouise, visited this spot in 2006. No people, no trail, pure wilderness. Today, May 2016, a huge parking lot, buses full of tourists and a perfectly paved trail. Too bad but that's the way it is. Still a fantastic view and crazy tourists taking selfies on the edge of the cliff 😂
Have a great weekend everybody!

What a great shot! Thank you so much for your submission!

About 9 years ago I was travelling with my brother around British Columbia in West Canada. Since I always try to let out my emotions especially with all that great scenery around I couldn't resist to take off!! Taken around Hope not so far from Vancouver.

A photograph I took of the Wisconsin sky on a cold winter night. Had the tripod set up and did a long exposure shot to bring out the stars.

Last summer I was backpacking through central america with @ninolatino. One day in Guatemala we decided to go hike up a volcano to look at yet another volcano which has been erupting these days. I will never forget witnessing this tremendous force of nature!

Mexico was the first North American country what I saw. This picture was taken in Acapulco. It was so hot there, but so exotic for me. I tried to enjoy every taco what I ate there :)

Great picture! Thank you for your submission and stay tuned for the winner announcement. Tomas

Daily Learn some new from your post. Love to read it.

That is fantastic! I love to hear that! Have a great night and keep on steeming.

Damn, now I forgot to post my entry - Next week then ;)

If you like your entry to be considered kindly follow instructions. Try again next time please. Tomas

So, what rule did I miss, will you explain me? I couldn't find any other than that it must be a personally taken photo, from North America, submitted on Friday before 12 p.m. (I did it 5 min before midnight), and with a description of 30-50 words.
Could you explain me which of those I didn't follow, or are there some others I didn't find?
Am I allowed to use the same photo next time then? Thanks.
