7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday week #30 - the absolute winner takes 200 SBD!
@jpphotography Asian Sunday entry:
The Malaysian island Langkawi is an amazing place to explore by scooter! After one day of driving around the island, I found myself looking at this beautiful sunset, so I stopped on the roadside to capture the silhouette of this mosque in the last light of the day.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #30 – winner announcement!
@intrepidphotos Australian Monday entry:
The Natural Bridge is a naturally formed rock arch over Cave Creek, a tributary of the Nerang River. It was formed from a waterfall which undercut a cave beneath the waterfall and dug a pothole on top, until the two joined and the creek flowed through the cave, leaving an arch across the front. The bridge is located in Springbrook National Park in the Gold Coast hinterland of Queensland, Australia.

@axeman Antrarctica and 7 World's Oceans Tuesday entry::
Winter cold sunset at Baltic Sea coast, Lithuania. Quite long exposure make the moving ice pieces to look like ghosts. Still warm colors of dawning sun making the view much more interesting due color contrast.
Enjoy it!

Quiver Forest, Namibia
The Quiver Forest is actually privately-owned land — the Guriganus Farm — and the “trees” which make up this otherworldly forest are not actually trees at all, but plants. It’s a minor distinction because once inside this alien landscape, details such as that simply don’t matter. Their fibrous trunks are easy to hollow out and were once widely used as quivers for arrows, but again, that’s a detail that doesn’t really matter.
Amazing shot. So many colors and it really does look like an alien landscape. Hopefully the people that look at your picture takes the time to open it in fullscreen because there is no much detail. Incredible job!
Your pics from there are simply amazing!
What was pretty unexpected for me in Egypt is pretty strong Christian Christian group, with estimated ethnic Coptic population within Egypt range which estimates between 9 and 15 million
Here is Coptic church in Aswan shot on a bloody sunset while out cruise up the Nile
Enjoy the view!

Wow, this is an incredible photo. Great job.
Wow love the colours in this , great photo!!
Pretty amazing click! Thank you for sharing!
A pleasure to participate :)
Chefchaouen is known as Morocco's blue city for a reason! As you can see on this cityscape that I took from a sunset viewpoint above the town, all of the houses are painted in blue and white. In the streets of the Medina (old town), the blue buildings look even more impressive!
That is such a huge scale for that image. It is crazy to think of how many people there are inside of that photo going about their daily lives. Great shot.
Thank you for your contribution. Have a great day. Tomas
Baby elephant in the Addo Elephant National Park.
In the second most visited national park of South Africa we had a great time and saw this cute guy with his family. But we were even more excited when we saw a lion hunting a water buffalo😱.

BABY ELEPHANTS!!! I love elephants! This picture is so good! Great job!
and this is his family ;)
What a little cutie!
Yes he is :D
Even more with his family ;)
Something from the beautiful Seychelles again. I had the pleasure to visit La Digue for the second time a few weeks ago. Anse Source D'Argent was one of the beaches I came to for sunset every second day until I got a photo I was satisfied with. No blazing sunset, but a beautiful, calm blue hour.
Oh, such a stunning image! I would love to transfer to that beach right now:)
me too :-)
This is a magical shot. Great job.
A moment embedded in my memory forever: we decided it was a good spot to stop and enjoy the scenery right before sunset. The resting camels are casting long shadows. There are so many ripples and signs of life and time on the sand. The dunes are majestic and intimidating. Our Moroccan guide is taking pictures because no matter how many times you come here, it is never the same view. The Sahara is always changing.
Great colors in this. The golden tones from the sun look so good on the sand. I bet it is such an incredible experience to travel in the Sahara.
Thank you! :) It was a dream come true for me.
Truly fascinating! I have to make that trip too:).... thank you for sharing. Tomas
Yes, you should! :)
This is the view from the Signal Hill in Cape Town, South Africa. Besides the Table Mountain and the Lions Head, it's one of the three famous mountains that dominate Cape Town's cityscape. In contrast to the other two ones, this landmark can be climbed by car, which is a very popular activity among tourists to watch beautiful sunsets from the viewing platform.
Beautiful shot. Great job. I love the colors from the grass and weeds and then how the picture moves into the colors of the water and sky. Great job.
Thanks a lot! 🙂
What an incredible view! I can only imagine having a house on the top of that mountain:)
Yes, would not be the worst location for a house 😀
Christianity in Morocco
What makes this image interesting is that the sky is really not the sky. It is the Mediterranean Ocean. The black birds, are not birds, but actually boats. I had this view out of my window for 3 months. Amazing isn't it...

The giraffe, probably the most elegant animal of the savannah. The way they walk an run. The way they drink water and also the way they relax. What a great animal.
That is a real Africa:)... Thank you for submitting your entry. Tomas
I was out in the African Savanna and we started talking with this Maasai warrior. He was really excited to have his picture taken and wanted to have the perfect pose to show off his fierceness. I could only imagine the hunting stories he has to tell. The Maasai are amazing people.
And now he becomes famous on Steemit:)... Great pic!
