It would be great if you can visit their blogs and appreciate their awesome photography skills with some upvotes.
However, the winner is only one and that is for me picture posted by @karma-panorama with the following entry:
Potosí, Bolivia was built at the foot of the Cerro Rico ("Rich Mountain") in 1545, a mountain of silver that dominates the city. For nearly 60 years, Europe will benefit from this precious metal that the Spanish exploited. Unfortunately, the silver was extracted by the forced labor of the Indians and thousands of them died of respiratory problems due to dust in the mines or blocked in them after landslides.
In this picture, we see the Church of San Lorenzo, in the Plaza de Armas, just next to La Casa de la Moneda, where the Potosí money was made. A must do visit!
What a great contribution from @karma-panorama to the photo challenge! I have visited @karma-panorama blog and upvoted his post Bellagio Fountain Show, Las Vegas. @karma-panorama amazing entry from Bolivia is qualifying for the weekly challenge where it will be competing against the previous and upcoming winners of the week:
7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday week #74 - winner announcement!
@worldcapture Asian Sunday entry:
Wahiba Sand Desert Oman. Today I share another picture I took in the desert of Wahiba Sands. You can see the stunning sunset around this incredible area. One of the most peaceful places I have been on all my travels.
7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Australian Monday week #74 - winner announcement!
@gunnarheilmann Australian Monday entry:
This Boab Tree is located just a few kilometers from Emma Gorge at El Questro on Gibb River Road in Western Australia. There is no Light Polution at all.
On of the hotest nights i ever spent Light Painting. 39.5° C 2AM - impossible to sleep full on sweaty sleeping on the car in the middle of f-ing nowhere. Anyhow the photo was totally worth it. This Boab Tree was so impressive and also noisy. What you cant see nor hear are all the frogs that were sitting in that tree. So cool. What you see here is a 40sec. exposure and i run with my colored flash lights towards the tree and shine at the ground first then the tree second. If you look closely you can also see my feet. I think it adds some organic texture and makes it more real than just some photoshopped effect. FYI > The huge bright spot next to the tree is not the moon. That is Saturn!
@bluebottlefilms Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans entry:
Those magical mornings when you wake up and look outside and realise the beauty of what’s passing by. Antarctica truly does blow the mind. One of the last truely untouched parts of our planet.

@gabrielgaso African Wednesday entry:
This is my entry! A small walk through the desert can serve to clear ideas. Our passage through the desert of Merzouga left us with incredible views, it was the first time we were there and, everything seemed like a movie!

@jpphotography European Thursday entry:
Tram in Prague. The day I took this photo the sky looked very dark, but the sun was still shining on the streets of Prague. I went to see the "dancing house" and on my way back towards the old town, I found myself in this beautiful street.

@silvergingerman North American Friday entry:
This was taken at Maligne Lake last summer. The forest fires going on made it a little hazy but the trip to Spirit Island was definitely worth it! Make sure you book your boat tickets in advance!
