When I took this photo, I had finally arrived in Camaguey after a long day of travelling in hot, crowded local Cuban buses, since all the tourist buses were booked out days ahead. This amazing sunset in the UNESCO world heritage historic centre of Camaguey was a perfect end to an exhausting day.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #14 – winner announcement!

@jh3n Australian Monday entry:

This year I spent nearly 10 months traveling around Australia exploring and discovering places I have never thought existed. This self-timed shot wasn't the easiest photo I've taken, the tripod was sitting on the tiny ledge of the walls with water flowing underneath.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and the world’s oceans week #14 – winner announcement!

@justdentist Tuesday of Antarctica and world's oceans entry:

Calm and dangerous - The world's oceans

Many people work "on the water" - Fishermen, workers on drilling islands, marines, crewmembers of cruiseships. The work can be wonderful but also pretty dangerous in some situations. The images shows the peaceful sunrise on the Ijesselmeer in the Netherlands.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #14 – winner announcement!

@mibreit-photo African Wednesday entry:

I took this photo five years ago on La Digue, one of the Seychelle islands a little north-east of Madagascar in the midst of the indian ocean. It's a wonderful little island with many beautiful little beaches. This here is Anse Source D'Argent, which is maybe one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.

I can't wait to return there in two months :-)

@axeman European Thursday entry:

Another stormy sunset at Baltic Sea, nearby Klaipeda, Lithuania. My usual location for a shooting, but this time was quite lucky to get some interesting piece of wood ashore, which visually was quite similar to some kind of a fish...
Stormy sky and long exposure did the trick.

Enjoy the scenery!

Finally SOLUTE to the entry of @jpphotography. A perfect sunset in the UNESCO world heritage historic centre of Camaguey.

What a beautiful contest it was. Although I never get a chance to enter in this contest, As by profession I'm not a photographer. But I like photography by others. Always appreciate them due to their talent.

Here is clapping for organizing an amazing contest dear @czechglobalhosts. Please carry on this practice and spread beauty in the world. All the best for your great work and Advance HAPPY NEW YEAR, 2018!

Thank you and Happy New Year to you and your family too! The contest will only be getting better in 2018 so keep on following:)... Tomas

Absolutely stunning stunning from each winner, but @jpphotography's entry, what can I say! The composition, colouring, lighting and depth of field are just stunning! Tomas each day you provide these stunning photographers more exposure! Top work from everyone and I hope that one day I can produce something to a similar standard. Happy New Year Tomas, the photography community and every Steemit member out there! Whatever your goal is work hard and dreams can be achieved!

Thank you so much! Happy New Year to you and your family as well.

Thank you! The golden hour light in Camaguey that day was upon the most amazing light I have ever had for a photo. I had just arrived at the casa where I was staying that night and saw how the light changed into the warm and beautiful yellow light of the sunset, so I said to my hosts "Sorry, can we do the check in later, I need to get some photos", I grabbed my camera, walked out the house and turned around to see this amazing view. Happy New Year!

Really their photos worth winning the contest.you did a wonderful job by selecting it.As i go through it ,each of the photo draws my attention and i spend not less than 3 minutes looking at it .especially the entry by @mibreit about madagascar

Very happy to hear that! Those pics really are out of this world. Credit to all the participating Steemians. Tomas

LOVE these Seascapes & Ocean shots .. the one labeled "Another stormy sunset at Baltic Sea, nearby Klaipeda, Lithuania" is maybe my favorite -- along w/ the one ABOVE it (of the sea).

Oh, and I DEFINITELY CANNOT leave out 'San Francisco Seal Rocks at sunset' /Cliff House Restaurant, as I think I may have eaten at that restaurant !

Good nite, in San Francisco ♦♦ Anyway, You have good taste w/ your imagery .

Noteworthy that you began a #TRAVEL business ♦♦ I have a Relative who runs a travel biz, too
