Only use of personal images will be accepted and only one picture can be submitted for a daily photo challenge. Ten winning photos will receive a bigger upvote from me and ten runners-up will get a smaller one.
Chosen from the ten winning entries, the absolute winner of the day 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 winning picture of the daily challenge will then automatically enter other rounds with the absolute winner gaining approximately 200 SBD in total.

There's a sad story behind this photo. This is the Yellow Bridge that connects the islands of Lembongan and Ceningan off the southeast coast of Bali. I took this photo in November of 2015. This bridge was made for pedestrians, bicycles, and motorbikes to cross between the two islands. When I walked across, there were some planks missing, and when a motorbike crossed with me, the bridge would sway. I wouldn't say I felt unsafe but it did give me pause. Sadly, in December 2016, the bridge collapsed killing 8 people. Apparently, the bridge was especially busy that day due to a Hindu festival. By March 2017, a bigger, better Yellow Bridge replaced the fallen one that thankfully is much safer and even includes bright lights for the nightfall. While it's heartbreaking that people lost their lives, I'm glad a better, safer bridge is now in place for the locals and tourists to cross the islands.

Hong Kong is such a special city. You have the a huge skyline in front of the mountains with Victoria Peak, the ocean with a lot of islands all arounds and of course a lot of western / British influences. You can take a tram up to Victoria Peak to have a great view above the city. If you want to have a fancy dinner, just visit the Hutong restaurant in the 28th floor. But be sure to have a reservation. Have a great week everybody!!!
That is the spot I am going to go when in HK:)....

The last minutes of light on Danjugan Island. This island is a special place, it is one of the few Filipino islands that is near fully protected. The sunsets were an added bonus!
Amazing shot!
Nice sunset 🌅👌
Trekking in the Himalaya is an adventure for some and a routine for others! I crossed path with this Tibetan lady living in the mountain as she was walking down the valley to do her shopping. A harder walk than you can imagine :)
Location: The Himalaya, Nepal.
Breath-taking! Amazing image.
Thank you very much.
wow! Amazing!
Glad you like it, thanks a lot :)

When I was cycling to Lahsa, I was attracted by this stunning lake view -- Sisters lake. It is located between Batang and Litang County, in Sichuan Province, China. The melting ice of the mountain (Haizishan) formed the lake and made this amazing view.
I love your image! Thank you so much for your participation. Tomas
Thx so much, Tomas!
Here's my entry for Asian challenge this week :)
This is Gili Lawa Darat, an island in the north east of Komodo. The island is almost seen as a desert barren savanah which wholly covered by grass. I went here on dry season so the island almost look brown everywhere, which will be a different scene during rainy season when all is green grass. On this trip i was staying overnight on the boat, and woke up early , do trekking up to the summit and capture this beautiful sunrise. Hope you guys like it ;)
I am short of words! Just stunning.
😊 thanks Tomas
I spend a week in Singapore and fell in love with the city. Most iconic sights in singapore are the marina bay sands, gardens by the bay and chinatown. but you'll find beauty everywhere. Ill just sat down here besides the science museum and captured singapores skyline reflecting in the water. with long exposure of course ;D
Wow nice reflection 👌
Splendid image! Thank you so much for your submission. Tomas
Hello Tomas :)
For this Asian photo challenge, I am using a photo of Taipei City, Taiwan.
(If you'd like to see the photo in full resolution, please click here, to see it in my Flickr album.)
It's taken from a small hill called Elephant Mountain just next to the city. It's actually quite easy to get up there (it's only about 1 hour walk from the nearest metro station), but the view is really breathtaking. I'd say it's the best view of Taipei City that you can get. The tall building is the Taipei101 which used to be the tallest building in the world after they built it (not anymore though...). It's definitely one of my favorite spots in Taiwan!
Beautiful cityscape 🌆😊
Amazing shot! Glad to see you participating. Tomas
