7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Asian Sunday week #17 – winner announcement!
@narchuk Asian Sunday entry:
At the Philippines I go to dive, most of the day I spend in the water or on a boat. Do not forget the night dive. As a result, I have very little time for sunrises and sunsets.
This time we returned from diving, and I watched the sun go down into the ocean. It happened at the moment when the boat hit the shore. I had to jump right into the water together with the underwater box. I did not have time to get another camera.
I was lucky. In addition to the beautiful sunset, I saw a turtle swimming alongside. A few minutes before it was dark, we swam together.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #17 – winner announcement!
@mibreit-photo Australian Monday entry:
Here's my favorite photo from New Zealand. I took it a year ago in Tongariro National Park. It was quite cloudy as we arrived in the Park and we couldn't see the peaks yet. But I hiked to Tama Lakes anyways, hoping for a change. As the clouds then broke and revealed Mount Ruapehu it was an awesome sight.

This is the South China Sea along the coast of Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. KK as it's generally referred to as, is on the northwest coast of the island of Borneo. Even though KK is a large state capital (of Sabah) and a major gateway to Borneo, it still has a distinct laid back island feel to it. My visit here was quick but I enjoyed it tremendously.
Thank you so much for your continued support and participation. Have a good one. Tomas
Milford Sound
Frozen water on top of the mountain, falling down the water fall, into the water and vaporizing again because of the sun and heat. It's an endless cycle - cycle of life! On our boat trip we saw penguins, dolphins and sea lions. All of them depend on the oceans water. So let us protect it!
Great entry and an amazing image. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us. Have a great day and stay tuned for the winner announcement post. Tomas
Scooting far beyond, seeking for this imaginary place where the sky mixes with water... What we like to call the horizon line.
Lost in the colourful water while the 2 thins are poping out of the water!
Everyone is at the rendez vous, even this bird flying over the turquoise water looking for something to feed on.
Monkey Mia is a strange place out of a dream where the water is probably as coulorfull as you can imagine it in a dream. It is also a place where from the beach, you can see dolphins feeding every morning.
Location: Monkey Mia, Australia.
Beautiful northwest coast water, amazing colours!
Thank you 😀
What an amazing image and great entry. Thank you so much. Tomas
Thank you very much. It's always a pleasure to participate to your contest Tomas.
Oh, finally.. :D So just reposting from the last week this time
Volcanoes in Baltic? What? You would say impossible? Well, that depends on the point of view in fact.
Shot at very cold winter evening (if remember right was some -20 degrees) and with very low shooting point and extra wide lens.
So visually its really looks like a volcano :D
Enjoy the scenery!

Great capture and fabulous image. Thank you for sharing with all of us. Tomas
One of the most beautiful beaches of Portugal is Praia da Ursa near Lisbon. With its fine sand, red rocks and turquoise water it looks like paradise. Because of its secluded location it is kind of a insider tip without masses of tourists. You have to hike down a steep and rocky path for half an hour to get there. But it is definitely worth the effort ;)

Stunning image, what else to say. Thank you so much for your support. Tomas
Hey Tomas, i know its a bit late (struggling with time difference here in Austalia!) but id like to enter a picture from the latest #shorebreaksessions series im running:
This is the indian ocean in all its rawness, power and beauty. There were a lot of lefthanders coming through and id been washed further up the beach where its a bit more shallow. I saw this wide one coming and it started to peak up on the right. It was one of the heaviest waves of the session and i payed the price for this shot - getting dragged back over the falls and into the tumble dryer. Needless to say it was worth it for this beauty!
Thanks again for hosting the world continent challenge legend!
No worries, I was bit messed up myself over the past 3 or 4 weeks due to my travels. I am back on track starting today though:).... What a great entry. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement that will be coming in the separate post later on today. Tomas
A huge flock of caruncles fills the entire space from the bottom to the surface. People were lost in it. Sometimes she was at peace. But then came into motion. Then it seemed that the water itself comes to life.
Wow , what a beauty ! My biggest regret in life is that I can only snorkle , as I have an internal ear problem ....
Great view thanks !
Very pity. But you can see a lot on the surface.
Turtles, seals and even whales!
:) I went whale watching last summer ! I will put on some pics but they are not very good ...
You're so nice for commenting on this post. For that, I gave you a vote!
merci ! :)
O! I was also on whale watching this year.
at Vava'u Tonga
It's really not easy to shoot there.
For me it was at the large of Boston , about an hour and half from the coeast , was shocked by the amount of boats there was , found it almost to much intrusive .... ...
I can imagine.
Even if there were many boats at the edge of the earth on Tonga.
Wow incredible shot @narchuk!
Thank you!
Your images are just incredible! I am very pleased you found your way to Steemit and to my challenge:)
Our ways are inscrutable)
I am also very glad that I was here on the steemit. and also I found your page and competition)
The picture was taken while cruising from Lombok to Flores.
We have been around 20 people and had an absolutely wonderful time. During the trip we did a lot of snorkeling, exploring a pink beach and the incredible beautiful islands of the Komodo National Park.
I really enjoy sailing with a lot of friends and should definitely do this more often.
Thank you so much for your contribution! Great entry! Have a good one. Tomas
The surfing Beach of Coolum in Australia. When a swell comes in you can see the power of the ocean. Up to 8ft high waves breaking over sandbanks and producing a whitewater which will wash you away. Everyone who was out surfing in such condition knows how powerful our wonderful ocean can be.
Thank you so much for your participation. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today. Tomas
This is Irminger Sea between Iceland and Greenland. I took this picture on a ship during a whale watching tour starting from the Icelandic capital Reykjavik. The vast cold ocean looks surreal at sunset, with a seagull flying over the shimmering waves.
So peaceful! Great shot!
This is Barcelona's classic neighbourhood by the Mediterranean sea, where the people love to come and eat fish and tapas. Also it is great place with to walk and ride a bike, even in the winter. This neighbourhood offers everything - great restaurants with amazing food and wines, awesome views with sculptures & statues around and relaxing.

Viva Barcelona~
I love this vibrant city, too :)

Close-up of a tide wave on the empty beach Playa Negra in Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica. Although this region of the Caribbean Coast of Costa Rica is very popular among tourists, the beach is so long that you can always find a spot where you have some privacy. Photo taken in September 2017.

The beautiful clear waters of the Southern Philippines offer excellent opportunities to dive and snorkel with healthy coral reefs. This shot was taken inside of the marine protected area just off the eastern side of Limasawa Island.

So happy that someone from my country is featured.
Palawan is one of our most visited places.
I highly recommend Palawan for those visiting the Philippines.
Palawan is absolutely gorgeous. I just spent 7 days over there. Tomas
We took this photo at Lennox Head. It was one of the many stops during our road trip NSW to QLD in Australia. We normally don't do road trips but thought it would be a fun experience. Lennox Head was not a very big town but we had a great time there and will definitely go back for another visit.

I was on Seychelles with my girlfriend last year in May. We were just laying on the beach and enjoying in doing nothing. We were the last ones on the beach waiting for glorious sunset and it was definitley worth waiting.

Hi, this photo was taken on an amazing snorkeling trip off the coast of Belize, where the waters are so rich with life it takes your breath away. It was such a great experience, swimming along side these beautiful creatures.

This is my pops fishing in Florida. They live in Port Charlotte on the Gulf of Mexico side. He didn't know I took this picture, but when they saw it they printed it and framed it and put it on their wall. It appears black and white but this is a color picture, you can see some blue peeking through the clouds.

Best regards from Germany
This was me in November of 2009 on the Ross Ice Shelf during a "morale" trip my supervisor won while working at McMurdo Station, Antarctica. We were headed back from an expedition to see an adelie penguin breeding ground when we spotted these emperor penguins off in the distance. Abiding by the Antarctic treaty we did not approach them, but they were curious so they changed direction and came right up to us...best day ever!
P.S. I am new to steemit and am just getting the lay-of-the-land; I haven't even written my introduction post yet. When I do you can bet Antarctica, or The Ice as we call it, will be a key topic of discussion.
