Hi friend, time without participating in this great contest. My entry, I published it days ago. It was a ramdom picture taken from the balcony of my house to the sky of the city of Merida, in Venezuela. It was taken at approximately 6:30 PM in the afternoon. It is the perfect time to capture the last rays of the sun, which illuminate the city. It's a really beautiful show.

@mibreit-photo Australian Monday entry:
This photo was taken a few years ago during a hike up to Roys Peak near Wanaka in New Zealand. The weather was very dynamic and provided some interesting play of light and shadow. I oped for a black and white here to emphasise those nice contrasts.

@crazy-andy African Wednesday entry:
For today’s African photo there is one of my favorite shots from that continent. I don’t know exactly why, but I simply like it. We can see cohesion of flora and fauna there. Big African elephant walking through the horde of impalas those graze in savannah.

@travelshots European Thursday entry:
Together with Segovia and Avila, Toledo is one of three amazing, historical cities that you can reach very fast and easily from Madrid by train, within a day trip. The old town, that was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1986 for its extensive monumental and cultural heritage, is located on top of a hill, surrounded on three sides by a bend in the Tagus River.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - North American Friday week #54 - winner announcement!
@justdentist North American Friday entry:
Yosemite National Park. It's been over two years now that we finished our 4 week honeymoon in the western part of the USA. Yosemite NP was one of the hightlights for sure. Great trails and hikes, so much to explore and an incredible Airbnb stay at Susan's home in Oakhurst. Expected many, many tourists but I still think it's worth going if in the area.
Have an incredible weekend everybody :)

This photo was taken in the sand dunes of the beaches of Punta del Este, the second largest city of Uruguay. It is one of the most fashionable city resort of the southern hemisphere, for this reason it is known as “Monaco of the South”. It is located where the water of the Rio de la Plata meets the Atlantic Ocean. In the background of the image it can seen the skyline of buildings of the city.
Thank you so much for your submission. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today.
After a 4 day treck we finally made it up to Machu Picchu in Peru. Once we reached the top of the mountain it was covered in cloud and couldn't see more than 10m in front of us. We waited for the clouds to leave and I snapped this pic. It was an amazing adventure!
Superb! Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you
Here is the marvelous Marble Caves (Cuevas de Mármol) in the Patagonian Andes of Chile. It's not easy to reach this peninsula of solid marble bordering a remote glacial lake that spans the Chile-Argentina border. After a long journey, we finally arrived at the quiet village Puerto Rio Tranquilo. I shot this picture from a boat left from the village's port. And I have more close-up photos to share of course! :)
Fabulous as always! Thank you so much.
The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in Colombia.
The view is from the top of a local 'Finca' de cacao. You get there with a little hike from the small village of Minca.
Fantastic views! I am actually heading there in couple of days so might go for a hike then:)
Thanks! Looking forward to you sharing some of your photos ;) Enjoy
What a beautiful sky!
Sunset of a great radiant sun on Margarita island Venezuela, leaving home one afternoon on the road I found this sun so radiant between clouds that I thought it was a magnificent landscape worthy of sharing in this excellent weekly photography challenge.
Thank you so much for your participation and your wonderful entry.
Sunrise on the Margarita Island
This is a beautiful sunrise of the first day of October on the island of Margarita. I did not have to go far, it was leaving my house. Definitely for me it is a privilege to be able to see both the sunsets and the sunrises in this area.
Wow, what a sky! Tremendous capture.
Today I want to show you a another beautiful view of the hill "Guayamurí" from a house. This hill is one of the natural monuments of Venezuela, located specifically in the northern area of the Isla de Margarita (Venezuela). The view of this hill recalls, in its form, the famous Japanese volcano "Fujiyama".
What a great click! Thank you and have a great day.
Sunrise in Los Altos de Sucre
Thank you so much for your entry and this wonderful image.
This is the "Parque Nacional Quebrada del Condorito", in the province of Cordoba, Argentina. Part of a protected area of 150,000 hectares. One of the highlights of the area is the presence of a significant number of species from the high peaks of these mountain ranges. The most popular being the condor, that I had the chance to see during my visit.
Thank you so much for your submission! Greatly appreciated.
