7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday week #7 - winner announcement!
@nenio Asian Sunday entry:
This photo shows a night view of Hong Kong. The reflections of the light of the buildings can be seen on the water. The photo was taken at Hong Kong Harbour, one of the most iconic places of this city. Some of the most important skyscraper of the city are located in this area.
7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #7 – winner announcement!
@bluebottlefilms Australian Monday entry:
A beautiful sunrise one morning at my local beach, Curl Curl on Sydney's northern beaches. It still surprises me everyday as to how many people living in Sydney still have no idea where it is...
@travelgirl Tuesday of Antarctica and world's oceans entry:
I took this shot during our helicopter ride in Hawaii. The weather was perfect so we took heaps of photos. It seems like the water colour in Hawaii is a bit different to what we have in Australia. It’s was such a great trip!
7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #7 – winner announcement!
@extremejogging African Wednesday entry:
Inspired by all these epic landscape photos, here is a golden hour shot I took while running on a Stellenbosch Farm in South Africa. I am very privileged to basically have this beautiful route in my back yard.
7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – European Thursday week #7 – winner announcement!
@thesloopjohnb European Thursday entry:
I very much enjoyed my first trip to Rome, Italy but felt I should have stayed longer. The Forum was amazing, so much so that I returned at night to an overlook spot to take this long-exposure photo. If you look closely, you can even see the Colosseum in the background.

I find this photo quite interesting. You can see the reflection of the iconic Empire State Building on a pond in the street. The pond was formed after a rain.
Thank you so much for your submission. Stay tuned for the winner announcement coming soon!
Last year I travelled to Central America with a friend, in Guatemala we climbed a volcano hoping to see another volcano erupt. On our way there we saw the smoke of an eruption drifting away. We were pretty sad that we missed the eruption, but just a few minutes after we arrived at the viewpoint the volcano erupted again! I will never forget the enormous force of nature I witnessed that day.
Exquisite!
This is my entry to North America Photography as you can guess where it is, Niagara Falls.. I took this picture from the ship that letting us pass by Niagara falls. It was like raining next to it. Because as you know that the water falling down from the top, it is going up with the speed power of water.
Stunning picture! Thank you so much for sharing! Stay tuned for the winner announcement! Tomas
Antelope Canyon - Arizona
I bet most of you have seen those crazy colored stone formations of the Antelope Canyon on pictures before . Seeing the sun beams shining through the narrow opening of the Canyon is just incredible. It's pretty crowded down there but worth a trip.
Have a great weekend everybody and thanks Tomas for hosting the contest day after day:)
Fabulous as always! Thank you so much for participating! Great weekend to you as well!
Thank you!
Enjoy this marvelous panorama view over the Bryce Canyon National Park (Utah, USA). The orange-redish colours of this canyon seem so surreal when you are down there. Its kind of like how imagine the Mars to be. But see for yourself.
P.S.: Glad your challenge is going so well - really amazing entries every day :)
Beatutiful! I will be selecting different winnr but feel free to re-use this image in the upcoming weeks!
Thank you :) I have many more pictures from America, so will probably post something different :)
This photo comes from a vacation I took to Boston, Massachussets in the United States of America. This photo was taken at Boston's Public Garden - a lovely place to go if you want to take a break from the busy and loud core of the city. The city of Boston has such a rich history and it was so neat to hear about all of the important political events that have taken place there over time!
What a great entry! Thank you so much for participating in the challenge! Please stay tuned for the winner announcement! Tomas
I'd call this more of a suggestion/tip than a personal story. There's a great park (Fort Lee Historic Park) on the New Jersey side of the George Washington Bridge that gives a great vantage point looking towards NYC. If you go there, you can get a picture like this:
Beautiful! I will be selecting a different winner but feel free to re-use this image in the upcoming weeks!
Oh interesting. I hadn't considered re-entering a photo that didn't win a daily contest but I may do that at some point. Even though I live in North America, photos that I love from this continent are surprisingly limited!
Hoover Dam
I remember back in my home town, we have a dam but it was small. Seeing this dam was up there on my list of amazing structures. I wonder how many people died making this.
I had to look it up. 96 people officially died from the construction. When you add in other deaths (such as pneumonia), the number is over 100. https://io9.gizmodo.com/5893183/who-is-buried-in-the-hoover-dam
Amazing. I didn't know that information. We passed by the hoover dam ... We didn't really get to know the history of it.
I didn't know that info either. Because of your photo and comment I looked it up and learned something. So thank you!
absolutely stunning!
This first picture - reflection in water is perfect @czechglobalhosts
