Hello fellow Steemians!
Welcome to my 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Australian Monday - where the winner of the weekly round will be able to participate for the total of 200 SBD! Today, you can participate by submitting your personal pictures from your travels to the continent of Australia. I am also adding New Zealand to the same challenge as there were some concerns from other Steemians as to which continent NZ belongs to.
See the winner of the last week´s Australian Monday @vinceboisgard with the following entry:
The Great Ocean road really is a nice drive, especially when the sun is out. You can do it in a few days to really enjoy the sceneries. These are the famous 12 apostles or what left of it! They are slowly disappearing because of the ocean erosion.

Been to Australia a few times and it is the perfect place for a vacation. The beaches, the landscapes are just one of a kind. I and my girls went for a vacation and we had the time of our lives, here's a photo from one of our campouts
Amazing.. This photo shot makes it look like there's about to be an apocalyptic ending
Thank you so much for submitting this wonderful image to the contest. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today.
I hope I win... Tomas
Blue Lake in Mount Gambier
Most people do not believe me that it really lokes like that when they see the photos. But it is really like that. When I first saw that Lake I couldn´t believe my eyes, it just looks surreal. It does not alway have such a strong blue and also can be greyish.
That lake is just calling to be jumped in, wonderful shot.
thank you!! Unfortunately it´s not a swimming lake.
You've probably been to one of those places where you thought it was super beautiful but had no idea it was a popular tourist spot before, right? This is what happened here. I went to see the 12 apostles and drove past a sign saying something weird I didn't understand - that's how I ended up here. The best adventures are the unexpected ones!
I have not but one day I will, thank you for sharing.
I'm sure you will!
This is one I took when I went for a mission outside my home town in Victoria Australia. Is it so rare to see the Southern Aurora with Naked Eyefrom here but tonight it was epic
A truly splendid image. Well done!
Storm cloud rising over Darwin's coast. I've never seen clouds like this before even though I used to look a the clouds trying to find what they could look like to. This one is just very weird and so beautiful... Only in Darwin you can see that :)
Location: Darwin, Australia.
Didn't know clouds could get so blue! Super cool picture!
Thank you very much!
Well you wouldn't believe me if I told you what colours the sky can turn in over Darwin! This is a very strange place for sunset sighting, I loved it so much I was out on the beach every single night when I was over there.
Oh man! I lived just a few hours away on the plane from Darwin, I had no idea it was this beautiful.
What a superb blue color,love it!
Early morning in a remote area of Tasmanian highlands, next to Walls Of Jerusalem National Park. We spent the New Years day hiking in this phenomenal park, a spectacular labyrinth of alpine lakes, dolerite peaks, ancient but fragile forests of Pencil Pines and unique alpine vegetation. Unfortunately just a week after our visit, part of this ancient forest was burnt in a catastrophic fire and completely wiped out.
Wow, that is too bad, what a catastrophy....
Here's my entry... see the full post here.

This is Natural Bridge but is sometimes called Natural Arch. It is a stunning waterfall found in Springbrook National Park in Queensland, Australia. I was blessed the day we visited, we had been there for a little while and I had already taken a heap of photos but then the sun found an area through the trees to shine through making my photos all the better. The reflection from the sun on the water was reflecting up onto the roof of the cave highlighting it's fabulous textures and colours.
What a wonderful place and splendid image you are sharing with us through your entry. Truly appreciated. Tomas
Thank you kindly Tomas! : )
Lifeguard Tower at the Gold Coast
Queensland's Gold Coast is a paradise for swimmers and wave riders. Life guards keep watch from towers like this one at Snapper Rocks and make sure that the sea is safe.

I have also posted this photo on my blog.
Like from the movie set:).....
Was one of the best trips of my life! I have more photos from Fraser Island but this one just brings back good memories and a smile on my face! Also this is where I met @josefinemk! Crazy how time flys. Was taken in January 2016!
Excellent to hear that, that's the way:).....
Absolutely! I’ll have to dig for some more photos from Aus,NZ and back home to enter the contests! Unfortunately I’ll just be getting a camera so most of them are just IPhone quality but it is what it is! The winning entry for this weeks Aus pic was fantastic.
We rent a campervan and left Perth in Western Australia, drove up north along the coast. After leaving Perth we were on the road for 2 hours and 40 minutes until we arrived in the Nambung-Nationalpark. This is the National Park where you will find the Pinnacles in Australia. You pay a small fee to park right in front of the area where the pinnacles reach out of the ground. There are different theories how the Pinnacles in Australia arised. The most plausible theorie for me was that burned trees were covered in sand and turned into stone after hundreds of years.
It was a great experience to walk through this desert with its Pinnacles, all in different shape and size.
Thank you so much for your contribution and sharing your entry with all of us. Truly appreciated. Tomas
