7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Asian Sunday week #22 – winner announcement!
@thuylannguyen Asian Sunday entry:
This is my photo taken during a trip to Sa Pa in Lao Cai province, Vietnam. Sa Pa Town is located in Lao Cai Province, north-west Vietnam, close to the border with China. Sapa Town is famous both for its fine, rugged scenery and for its rich cultural diversity. Sapa is oriented to make the most of the spectacular views emerging on clear days; it overlooks a plunging valley, with mountains towering above on all sides. Views are often subdued by thick mist rolling across the peaks, but even when it's cloudy, local hill-tribe people fill the town with colour.

@finance2nomad Australian Monday entry: (this entry is disquilified as it turns out that this user is fake and stealing images of others)
This is Mount Cook National Park in New Zealand. Mount Cook is the tallest mountain in New Zealand at 3,724 metres (12,218 feet). The park has glacial surrounds, pristine blue lakes and towering alpine peaks, and offers some of the most impressive mountain walks in New Zealand.

Motion in blue. I found this interesting rock formation on the Cordoama beach in Portugal and had struggled to find the right position on the wet stones, wiping the lens, covering my camera from splashes and trying to capture the contrast between the motion of water and stillness of rock.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #22 – winner announcement!
@ansharphoto African Wednesday entry:
Deadvlei, Namibia. This place is striking in its lifeless beauty. It’s difficult to imagine that it was ever underwater; now the earth of Deadvlei is cracked and bleached a stark white by the sun. There is little to suggest that life ever flourished there. Even its name — Deadvlei, which means “dead marsh” or “dead valley”— conveys an o ominous sense of the absence of life.

Since a lot of my travel is for work, I don't get to choose the time I'll be at a certain location. But sometimes I get incredibly lucky. This was one of those times. When I visited Venice in June 2016, I had the chance to take a boat ride through the Grand Canal just as the sun was setting. I couldn't have asked for a better moment. The canals of Venice are truly a magical place.
Superp shot Matt!
Regretfully due constant erosion of the sandy Baltic seacoast, time to time pine trees are falling from the hill straight onto the beach. Sad to see, but bringing pretty nice opportunity to use them as a perfect foreground for sunset shots.
That's one of the fine examples.
Enjoy it!

The image turns out to be beautiful!
Ronda, Andalusia, Spain
City of Ronda is located in the very south of Spain not far from Malaga. Ronda is a most fairy tale looking city I visit recently. White washed houses perched on huge hundred meters high cliffs of Guadalevin River gorge inspire only wonder and awe. It is really difficult to imagine that people could live in such a place.
Oh wow! Imagine living in one of those houses and having a 200ft drop outside your window?
Spectacular! I have to visit there one day. Tomas
The beautiful Lake Bohinj in Slovenia. I loved how the rock formation in the foreground was shaped almost like a heart! A beautiful clear sunny day with some snow still on the mountains, this country is full of beauty!
Awesome shot!!
Thank you!

You are now trying to fight plagiarism?! After being accused and proved to be a plagiator yourself? (in Tomas´ yesterday post). Come on man... @vtravels has been contributing to this challenge for a long time and she, unlike you, posts only her own photos.
Yeah that’s my image!! I put it on alamy myself !
Ok then you need to show ownership to that photo to @czechglobalhosts sir.
No problem. I’ve logged into Alamy and here is a photo that you can only access from being logged in of the photographs that I’ve uploaded -
- is that ok??
Ok friend. Just helping @czechglobalhosts sir to stop plagarism🙂. Hope you don't mind.
No problem I understand you have to check!
Hello! I am glad to see the whole situation was cleared off and happy to see a community engagement. Tomas
PS: great pic!
Thanks Tomas!
This picture was taken at the terrace of the Rudolfsturm Restaurant, located by the Skywalk Hallstatt on the mountain just behind Hallstatt, Austria, reachable by cable car. There are few walking trails there, as well as an ancient salt mine that is a big attraction. I was there after walk on a trail for half a day, and was enjoying my lunch while I was treated to this view of the Lake Hallstatt.
Amazing shot, amazing place! Tomas

Every year, at the end of September, an enormous exhibition takes place in the Italian city of Bologna, which I have to visit on business. Previously, we stopped in large urban hotels, paying for it mad money. And the last couple of years we have found wonderful farms, which are engaged in agritourism. While there are very low prices for accommodation even during the high season associated with the exhibition, there is also a very tasty homemade food from farm products. Well, the landscapes there are excellent, especially in the mornings. Than I use, going out with the camera for a walk
What a beauty! Thank you so much for sharing this image in my challenge. Tomas
Thank you, Tomas, for your challenge!
The medieval village of Monsaraz (Alentejo region, southern Portugal) seen from afar, photographed in long exposure during dusk. It looks like a village out of a Christmas tale... You can even see the northern star in the center of the scenery!
Cheers!
Beautiful! Thank you so much for your submission. Tomas
Thanks Tomas!
The Munich Olympic Park is one of the most interesting systems of buildings in Munich. This park hosted the Summer Olympics in 1972. And to this day it is used for sporting actions. The nearby park is also worth a visit, because it is possible to see the whole city.
Glad to see your participating here as well! Great shot!
The Quaint Fishing Village of Reine
Have you ever had one of those days where you just want to escape? Away from the hustle and bustle of the city life? Dodge the canopies of the concrete jungle? A break from social media. A break from smartphones and computers?
Well, the fishing village of Reine is where you'd want to be. It's remote enough to be away from civilization but civilized enough to provide home comforts. You'll likely stay in one of the red fishing houses scattered throughout its bay and inlets.
You might even see the famed Northern Lights if you're lucky. You can climb one of the peaks surrounding the village for some of the most breathtaking views in the world. It's one of the places that will make you want to visit Norway.
What a beauty!
Green hills of Vesteralen
The sunlight coming through the rare breaks in the clouds creates an exciting game of light on the mountains of Langoya Vesteralen Islands, Norway. View from Hinnoya on the other side of Forfjord.
Gorgeous!!
Thank you!
What an image! Simply stunning!
Thank you!
