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 @robbertb with the following entry:

At the borders of an ancient forest on New Zealand's South Island, a lake, formed by a glacier 14.000 years ago, known as Lake Matheson provides an amazing view to Mt. Cook and Mt. Tasman. The reflections in the lake are caused by the dark color of the water.

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:

@worldcapture Asian Sunday entry:

Thale Noi Lotus Lake. The sunrise around this lake was probably the most beautiful one I've ever seen in my life. The golden/orange sky felt almost unreal watching it from the boat. The location was in Phattalung - South Thailand.

On the weekend we went whale watching off the coast of Moreton Island. We departed from Redcliffe which is about 45 Min drive from Brisbane CBD.
Every winter these hump back whales migrate up the east and west coast of Australia. It is amazing to see these gentle giants in the wild watching them play and breach out of the water.

The beach of Lake McKenzie, on Frazer Island in Queensland, Australia. The water of the lake is crystal clear, don't forget your scuba mask. There are cute little turtles swimming around.

Mount Taranaki, New Zealand

New Zealand is an incredible green country and notorious for having a lot of rain, but when I visited this beautiful country, I got incredibly lucky with the weather. Still, the landscape had lush green colours and amazing views such as this one on Mount Taranaki.

Broome is a very interesting place to visit in Australia. Famously known for the dinosaurs footprints that can be seen at low tide, it also is the town of the oldest world open air cinema in operation. Not to forget about it beach on which you can witness unbelievable sunset.

Location: Broome, Australia.

I thought I'd switch from landscape to animals this time. This is a photo of two Kea - New Zealand's infamous alpine parrots - fighting over the top of a rock. The birds are called the 'clowns of the mountain' and after seeing them, it doesn't take a genius to guess why. They're always keen to put on a show. This amazing performance took place near the summit of Ben Lomond (Queenstown) on a chilly and foggy day at 1500 meters altitude.
