Coral reefs are magical places, these ecosystems are home to thousands of species and are so important to life on earth. If you’ve never been snorkeling on a coral reef, take some time to go experience one because it will change the way you think about the ocean.

@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.

Boats with tourists passing by bays of the famous Blue Lagoon at the Comino Island, Malta. Located halfway between the main Maltese island and its sister island of Gozo, the Blue Lagoon has amazingly clear, turquoise water surrounded by majestic limestone cliffs.
Thank you so much for your wonderful entry.
A natural blowholes on the island of Tongatapu in the Keleti beach in the Kingdom of Tonga. When waves crash into the reef, natural channels in the volcanic rock allow water to forcefully blow through and create a plume-like effect.
That is pretty astonishing.
Bamboo tour on the Lijiang River
Water is the elexir of life. No water - no life. We use rivers for watering our farm lands, to transport goods, to catch some fish or just for fun. Mankind often thinks we can tame nature BUT we can't. We straighten rivers, clear huge parts of the forest / rain forest and use more and more land for agricultural purposes. The consequences vary and can't often be predicted. Please protect our planet as much as you can!!!
What a pretty scenery. Thank you so much for joining today's contest and sharing your entry with all of us.
Is there anything that better symbolizes oceans than dolphins ?! Freedom, power, independence are important components that embody the oceans, and dolphins too! No?! So this is my entry for your contest @czechglobalhosts !
Wow, what a stunner!
Snorkeling of the coast of Gili T in Bali, I dove of the boat to find these sunken statues surrounded by fish. These statues have been placed down here to start a artificial reef. It is an eerie feeling swimming around these statues.
Magical ~ ⭐️ ~
Looks a bit creepy, but a great photo thou!
Cheers 🍺
I did have to read your entry since I could not figure out what it was:)
It was definitely a interesting thing to see while snorkeling ☺
View from Bishop and Clerk on Maria Island
I have posted photos from Maria Island multiple times already: This wild island is one of my favourite places in Australia. The hike to the top of Bishop and Clerk mountain from where this view reveals the extend of the island was one of my highlights of my visit during my bike trip through Tasmania.

I have also posted this photo on my blog to promote this contest and shared my post to my Twitter account.
Thank you so much for your submission. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on.
I am sharing slightly older photo from Seychelles. I am not sure if there is a nicer ocean than Indian out there on the World. As you can see this photo below is a bit different. I tried to catch the wave, but to maintain a clear background as well.

That ocean sure is something else! Thank you so much for your entry.
Dolphin wave jumping at North Stradbroke island in Queensland Australia. It looks to me like an Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops aduncus); any dolphin identification experts out there? I can watch these guys all day.

What a fantastic capture!
Thanks
This picture of a wonderful red soft coral was taken at the dive site Mike's Point in Raja Ampat, West Papua. Raja Ampat is famous for having the highest underwater biodiversity in the whole world!
Some stunning colors in our oceans. Thank you so much for sharing.
Endangered species
To continue "Endangered Species" series, but this time definitely the view from some another planet.
Perfect purple skies and some unknown kind of species with a bit of long exposure here :)
Enjoy the scenery!
