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 @intrepidphotos with the following entry:

A sixteen shot panorama of the milky way over the Warrumbungles. The area has little light pollution to disturb astronomical viewing and is home to the Siding Spring observatory which is has more than a $100 million in scientific equipment including 44 telescopes. The largest is the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT), a 3.9-metre equatorially mounted telescope, sits at an altitude of a little over 1,100 m and was ranked in 2009 as the fifth highest-impact of the world's optical telescopes. New South Wales, Australia

Your entries need to be submitted by 8 AM Central European Time in order to be considered for the challenge with a description of approximately 30 to 50 words. 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.

Please see the winner of Asian Sunday and give him your support if you like his 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 him by upvoting his winner announcement post below:

GREEN NEW ZEALAND
This country has a lot to offer. Mountains, beaches, hot springs, wildlife, vineyards and so much more;) The photo was shot on our way to the famous Milford Sound on the East side of the South island. I was so amazed to see so many snow covered peaks while it was already so warm in December. What a great scenery.

I just do have to make it over there at some point in my life!

Blue Mountains
I´ve been to the Blue Mountains twice already and always wondered were that name is coming from. On this photo you can see pretty good why they are called the Blue Mountains. The leaves of eucalyptus evaporate the essential eucalyptus oil, whose fine mist lies over the mountains. In addition to Rayleigh scattering, this fine mist is responsible for the blue color in daylight.

What a wonderful image! Well done.

Devils Marbles in the Australian Outback

The Devils Marbles are an incredible rock formation: The round rocks are surrounded by the vast landscape of the Outback. Some of the giant rocks are split in the middle which makes for some amazing photos!

I have also posted this photo on my blog.

That photo rocks!

Tha sure is incredible! Some amazing natural wonders.

The Routeburn Track is a world-renowned, 32 km tramping (hiking) track found in the South Island of New Zealand. Photo shows the highest point - Lake Harris mirrors the sky with beautiful mountains around.

Mt Glorious QLD Australia

Last weekend we went for a drive up the mountain range to Mt Glorious, about 20 min drive from Brisbane city. We found this creek and followed it up stream for a while. It was a great way to cool off on a hot day.

If I did not read your post I would have thought it's right back here in the Czech Republic:)... looks almost the same....

Czech Republic must also be a beautiful place then ☺ it is on my travel list!

View on the lookout of cape Byron, at Byron Bay, Australia. It is a nice surfing spot, a place to do some whale watching and it is also a hundred meters from the most easterly point of Australian Mainland.

Looks like an awesome place to spend some quality time. Have a great day. Tomas

Mountains of the South Island of New Zealand

In winter these are covered in snow but in the warm summer months, the snow leaves some of the ranges of the Central South Island leaving green playgrounds for people and sheep alike. A beautiful sunny hot day is great to play in the hills of New Zealand.

Thank you so much for your participation. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today. Have a great day. Tomas

Early morning, the sky offers pastel colours over Auckland. Standing at the top of Mount Eden to contemplate the view over the bay, I shot this photograph of a city that is still asleep. The spot is offering a 360° view over Auckland and its suburbs... Enjoy.
