See the winner of the last week´s South American Saturday @itchyfeetdonica with the following entry:
I took this photo during my hike in the Colca Canyon in southern Peru. It is claimed to be the deepest canyon in the world, almost twice as deep as the Grand Canyon in the US. The stunning views and the high elevation kept taking my breath away. The majestic high mountains and snow-capped volcanoes were shrouded in mist, the crystal clear creek were flowing at the bottom of the deep canyons, and the condors were soaring above my heads.
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 winners of the previous contests of the week and give them your support if you like their images 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 them by upvoting their winner announcement posts 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.

@vinceboisgard Australian Monday entry:
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.
@phortun Tuesday of Antarctica and world's oceans entry:
View of an empty white sand beach and the Caribbean Sea on Isla Mujeres, Mexico. Located just some 13 km (8 mi) off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, Isla Mujeres is a little tropical island that is home to approximately 13,000 people.
7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #96 – winner announcement!
@jpphotoraphy African Wednesday entry:
Nejjarine Fountain in Fez, Morocco. This beautiful fountain can be found in the Medina of Fez. It is ornamented with mosaics and carvings. Fez' Medina is as confusing to get around as a labyrinth, so you are more likely to discover places like this by accident rather than by searching for it.
7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - European Thursday week #96 - winner announcement!
@drmincu European Thursday entry:
The Apuseni are probably the wildest part of the Carpathians. Wild animals roam free in the natural reserves and man's touch is barely felt. And the nights are so dark that you can just lay down and gaze the milky way.

@brsim North American Friday entry:
The rainbow balls of Montreal. They decorate Sainte Catherine street with the color of the rainbow. Hurry up if you want to see them, the decoration should be dismantled in September 2019.

Located just some 50 km (30 mi) east of Medellin in the Antioquia Department, Colombia, Guatape is a little town that is home to approximately 6,500 people and some of the most vibrant, colorful and nicely decorated houses in the world.
The lagoon of playa Arecife in Tayrona National Natural Park, in Colombia. Beware of the caimans swimming in the fresh water, but enjoy the vibes, the beach and the rain forest.
One of the most spectacular sunsets I've seen in Playa Mansa-Venezuela, a magical place and one of my magical moments to see this beauty a few minutes from where I live, a colorful show to recharge positive energies and clear the mind.
Here where I live, there is the season of "Tainha" which is a fish very caught and consumed. It is a traditional event. At this time of year it is common to see fishermen working with their nets. Even surfing is prohibited on most beaches so as not to hinder fishing. This picture was taken at Campeche beach - In Florianopolis, known as Magic Island, in Santa Catarina - Brazil
The north of Argentina is vast and propice to discoveries and outdoors activities. The mountains are beautiful, and the amalgam of color is amazing. Depending on the time of day and the intensity of the sun, the color of the mountains changes from bright red to purple.
Traffic in La Paz, Bolivia
Since there is a difference in elevation of about 1.000 metres between the lowest point of La Paz and the highest point of El Alto, the sister city of La Paz, the city highway is quite steep and getting from one point to another takes a long time by car. To improve the public transport, the local government has recently introduced a system of cable cars that provide a fast and convenient way of travelling between different places around the city, but since not every place can be reached conveniently, many still opt for a ride in a minibus instead.

Photo of the cable car that goes to the Monserrate Hill in Bogotá, Colombia. This trip is one of the main touristic attractions of the Colombian capital. From the top of the hill there is a nice view of the city.
We stopped at this little restaurant in Cusco for a delicious breakfast on our way to the mountains. This was the start of our 4 day adventure treck to Mach Picchu. From here we reached the top off a mountain then mountain biked down it for 2 hours, it was amazing!
