7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Asian Sunday week #27 – winner announcement!

@justdentist Asian Sunday entry:

Cormorant Fisherman in China. Here is one of my favorite photos from our trip to China last year. I also featured it in my "Faces of China" post. If you take part in Tomas, aka @czechglobalhosts, contest for a longer period of time, you'll might have seen some photos of the fisherman. After being a fisherman for several decades he now mainly works in the tourist industry as a model. I guess it's kind of a win-win-situation for him and tourists like us. He's wearing his traditional outfit. Once in a lifetime experience! Have a great week everybody.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans week #27 – winner announcement!

@narchuk Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans entry:

Sunset in the sea can have another meaning. When not only the sun but you yourself plunges into the water. The sky on the surface explodes with bright clouds. And the underwater world is completely transformed. The daily inhabitants hide and fall asleep. They are replaced by nocturnal creatures. All this process is not long at all. Less than an hour is required for nature to completely change over to another state. If I succeed, I always try to spend this time in or near water. Especially if it's as nice and warm as the Philippines. Of all the places where I was, there are some of the most beautiful sunsets.

@jpphotography African Wednesday entry:

Sahara - every kid knows the name of this huge desert in Northern Africa. When I was planning on visiting Morocco, I made sure to include the Sahara on my itinerary and these two guys provided me with a perfect motive!

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – European Thursday week #27 – winner announcement!

@ansharphoto European Thursday entry:

Rovinj, Croatia. Visitors to Rovinj are often struck by its resemblance to Venice, its neighbor almost directly across the Adriatic Sea. The only thing that seems to distinguish “Little Venice” from its namesake is the absence of canals and busloads of tourists.

This was such a nice memory from my trip to Mexico a few weeks ago. After spending the day having fun on a boat in the Pacific Ocean, a group of us went into Puerto Vallarta to have some drinks and watch the sunset from a rooftop. I wish I was back there now! But at least I have the memory that I can share with everyone!

Coffee Pot Steem

Following a night time snowstorm in southwestern United States one of Sedona Arizona's famed rock formations Coffee Pot Rock, is putting on a morning show. Its marvelous to see the sunlight hitting the rock and melting the snow revealing this beautiful misty scene.

Thank you so much for your fabulous image! I just love Sedona, only wish I had spent more time over there. Tomas

Your very welcome, Thank you for the opportunity to compete, and I just have to say Sedona is a wonderful special place.

The rising sun paints the Rocky Mountains as it wakes them to a new day. A true spectacle of nature and one of the most beautiful moments I have experienced. Gear: Canon 70D with Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM. Location: Colorado, Rocky Mountains National Park.

Stunning image! Thank you so much for your participation. Tomas

Thank you, Tomas!

Photo of Lake Moraine taken in the month of June. This lake is located at the Valley of the Ten Peaks in the Banff National Park, Alberta , Canada, at the heart of the Canadian Rockies. As it can be seen in the image the water colour is very characteristic, this is due to the glacial rock floor.

Thank you so much for your great entry. Have a fabulous day. Tomas

A visit to the British Columbia Parliament gives a good impression of the British influence that shaped Victoria. The decor is grand and the building is beautiful, both inside and out, especially when illuminated at dusk.
It is necessary to wait for 21h and the show begins. The parliament is fully lit .. I took this picture in cloudy weather .. I hope you like it ...
Victoria, Canada

Wow, that looks like from a cartoon! So beautiful. Tomas

Thanks Tomas..

Seaplane over Lake Tahoe 1(2).jpg

This photo of Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe was from an incredible flight around the lake in a tiny Kitfox seaplane with the door removed. Shortly after this, we touched down in the Bay, where we skimmed across the water for a bit then took off again. It was quite exhilarating and the memory was forever burned into my mind.

That must have been an amazing experience! Thank you for sharing with all of us. Tomas

It was indeed. Thank you for picking the shot as one of the top 10!

Views from the top of Ka'au Krater on Oahu Hawaii. I was lucky to be able to snap this photo as we had no views due to the clouds but when they did finally clear I got this amazing view. This hike is one of my favorites in all of Hawaii but is very long and tiring. It takes you up 3 waterfalls and gives you views of the entire south and eastern shores.

Thank you so much for your great submission!

I saw this elk early in the morning in a shallow part of Yellowstone Lake with beautiful reflections of not only of the elk, but also of the clouds and the tree in the background. This was my third time in Yellowstone National Park and it amazes me every time.

Taking pictures of the Antelope Canyon can be a difficult task - not enough light, people walking around, no possibility to go with a tripod unless you pay for a super expensive tour. This is my best shot. The picture was taken on 18 of January this year.

Well, you did an amazing job! Looks fabulous!

Autumn doesn't last long in Central Texas and these types of colors are rare and don't last that long but I was very lucky on this day to capture the foliage colors. Perdenales Falls is right outside of Austin, Texas near Dripping Springs, Texas.
