Hello fellow steemians!

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. Please make sure to add a proper description to your entry as this was the reason on few occasions when I could not pick the best image as it had a very poor description. 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 a 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, European Thursday and North American Friday 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. You can vote for them by upvoting their winner announcement posts below:

Beginning on the left side, you'll see the Marina Bay Sands Hotel with his Shopping center, followed by the Singapore Flyer and the ArtScience Museum. And finally on the right side by the water front, the Formula One Pit Building. This photo was taken from the Benjamin Sheares Bridge.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #14 – winner announcement!

@jh3n Australian Monday entry:

This year I spent nearly 10 months traveling around Australia exploring and discovering places I have never thought existed. This self-timed shot wasn't the easiest photo I've taken, the tripod was sitting on the tiny ledge of the walls with water flowing underneath.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and the world’s oceans week #14 – winner announcement!

@justdentist Tuesday of Antarctica and world's oceans entry:

Calm and dangerous - The world's oceans

Many people work "on the water" - Fishermen, workers on drilling islands, marines, crewmembers of cruiseships. The work can be wonderful but also pretty dangerous in some situations. The images shows the peaceful sunrise on the Ijesselmeer in the Netherlands.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #14 – winner announcement!

@mibreit-photo African Wednesday entry:

I took this photo five years ago on La Digue, one of the Seychelle islands a little north-east of Madagascar in the midst of the indian ocean. It's a wonderful little island with many beautiful little beaches. This here is Anse Source D'Argent, which is maybe one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.

I can't wait to return there in two months :-)

@axeman European Thursday entry:

Another stormy sunset at Baltic Sea, nearby Klaipeda, Lithuania. My usual location for a shooting, but this time was quite lucky to get some interesting piece of wood ashore, which visually was quite similar to some kind of a fish...
Stormy sky and long exposure did the trick.

Enjoy the scenery!

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – North American Friday week #14 – winner announcement!

@edward.maesen North American Friday entry:

San Francisco Seal Rocks at sunset. This is a group of rocks just off the coast near the Cliff House and Sutro Baths ruins, both of which are tourist destinations in San Francisco, CA, USA. I was fortunate to live here for a number of years.

This was the calm before the storm...literally. This is Mirador Pacific, a lovely park with incredible views of downtown Panama City, Panama. The weather was great at this point, but within a half hour after this photo was taken, menacing clouds rolled in, followed by a massive downpour.

Awesome photo!

Beatiful entry! I hope you won`t be running out of those:)

Well, truthfully, I was looking into January flights to Lima which are pretty inexpensive. I could use some new photos. And I was also looking at Melbourne. Being totally honest, I'm kind of annoyed that Australia/New Zealand is the only contest day I haven't won because I don't have any decent pictures from there! You're inspiring me to get a plane!

This photo was taken on the huge salt flats of Salar De Uyuni in Bolivia last year. I felt so small standing on this vast plain with miles and miles of nothingness around me. It was magical to watch as the sun dipped behind the horizon and the salt structures began to glow.

Just another stunning image! Thank you so much for your submission. Tomas

453.jpeg Stone walls built by Incas in Peru. Situated on a mountain and well hidden from colonisators. This place was unknown for spanish conquestors. Some of the few places where Incas didn't leave. It was discovered in 1911 by american people. Beautiful nature and a nice view.

What a great entry to the challenge and an amazing place. Thank you so much for your submission. Tomas

When I took this photo, I had finally arrived in Camaguey after a long day of travelling in hot, crowded local Cuban buses, since all the tourist buses were booked out days ahead. This amazing sunset in the UNESCO world heritage historic centre of Camaguey was a perfect end to an exhausting day.

What a fabulous picture! Simply amazing as always!!!

Me climbing up a coconut palm on the Saona Island, Dominican Republic. The island is a protected natural area and there are no people living there - the only possibility how to get there is a to take a cruise from the mainland. You can spend just about two hours on the island though. Photo taken in December 2015. (sorry for the poor light but it was a bad overcast that day)

Great pick and some serious climbing skills:)... Thank you and stay tuned for the winner announcement coming shortly. Tomas

This Image was taken at sunset in the driest desert of the earth, the Atacama Desert in Chile. It shows the lagoon "Laguna Chaxa" in the salt flat "Salar de Atacama". In the background you can see the vulcanoes of the andes. When the sun goes down and everything gets calm and silent the desert shows her real beauty...

What a stunning entry! Welcome to my challenge. Glad you found your way. Have a great day and stay tuned for the winner announcement. Tomas

Greetings sir!
This photograph is of a colorful view of a rural area of small hills located along the road, in the vicinity of the Muncipio de Morelia Caquetá- Colombian Amazonia. Photo taken during an eco-tour.

Thank you very much.

Wow, what a sky! Don`t think I have ever seen anything even close to that. Tomas

Enjoying the coast of Punta Cana Bavaro aboard of catamaran. Punta Cana is a popular tourist destination in Dominican Republic. This area is the land of rest and relaxation. Don´t worry about weather is fairly consistent all year.

Thank you kindly for your continued support and another great entry. Keep it up! Tomas

I'm an amateur photographer at best but absolutely love competitions and as I'm also interested in photography a little bit more now, thought why don't I give this challenge a go? :)

So my very first entry comes from my trip to Peru back in 2012, when we were on a 3-month trip across 3 continents. And yes, I do have loads of photos taken of the great and breathtaking Machu Picchu but thought I'd share this beautiful landscape with you first of all.

Hope you enjoy! And thanks @czechglobalhosts for organizing such a fun challenge!

Stunning picture, beautiful nature. Thank you so much for your submission. Tomas

Thanks Tomas, I must remember to take part daily! :)

From one of the most beautiful cities in the world, Rio de Janeiro - I shot this from Christo Redeemer on a cloudy day with a view of the Sugarloaf mountain and the vibrant city. The landscape makes me feel like I am ready to play 'Far Cry' with its beautiful panaroma
