Hello everyone,

I am really pleased with all the entries for week #9 of my 7 World's Continents Photo Challenge. So far I have given some $900 in upvotes to winning participants, especially winners of the daily challenges and another 135 in SBD to weekly winners. This post is a summary of the daily winners that will be competing for 15 SBD that I will send to a steemian of the winning photo of the weekly challenge. The winner of the weekly challenge will be picked based on your upvotes and will be announced next Monday. The winner of the weekly challenge will not only receive 15 SBD from me but will also automatically enter the monthly challenge to compete for another 30 SBD against the winners of weekly challenges of that particular month. Monthly winner than enters into a yearly challenge to compete against other monthly winners for another 100 SBD. The winner of the entire competition is totaling approximately 150 SBD.

Below is the 7 winning images of this week that are competing against each other to collect 15 SBD reward and to enter other stages of the competition. It is up to you my fellow steemians who the winner will be as the highest amounts of upvotes on the below winner announcements will determine who will be that winning steemian. The competition is heating up now so please vote for your favorite image. You have 7 days to do that. I am getting excited to see which continent will be the winning picture from.

As a student, I went to poor parts of Asia to teach children a little bit of English language. This picture was taken with my NIKON d3400 and it represents hard work and dedication in the fields of rice.

A Big swell is coming

They predicted a big swell for the Sunshine Coast here in Australia. So I went for a little walk yesterday afternoon and shot this photo from Coolum Beach. Seems like the Waves are getting bigger already.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and the world’s oceans week #9 – winner announcement!

I took this photo from a helicopter. It shows National Park The Kornatia which is often mentioned as "nautical paradise" in tourist publications. And really, in "slalom" sailing through the 89 unforgettable islands.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #9 – winner announcement!

@schmidthappens African Wednesday entry:

There are some great countries to visit in the southern part of Africa. One of those is Botswana. I took this photo just outside of Maun, Botswana of donkeys on the edge of the Thamalakane River. There are many donkeys here in this country and Botswana recently moved to protect them by banning the export of donkey products because of a rise in illegal killings. I'm glad to see Botswana make this move to protect these animals and help the farmers who rely on their donkeys to keep their farms running.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – European Thursday week #9 – winner announcement!

@aurumv European Thursday entry:

And do you think this is Europe ? Yes ! You are right - this is Iceland. I have even check this in Wikipedia... Could it be Europe so far away :) The landscape in Iceland is like from fantasy movies. It changes very fast depending to location and height. You can walk with T-shirts, but after an hour you will need a warm jacket. On my opinion this one of the best places for hiking. And certainly magnificent place for a photographers.

Taiba, Ceara, Brazil

First we gathered old coconuts, as they have thread like inside they are very good for making fire. I don't remember exactly which fish we had either tuna or garajuba. But holy smokes the fish BBQ is one of the best memories from trip to Brazil!
