7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Australian Monday week #36 - winner announcement!
@jayclar30 Australian Monday entry:
This is Natural Bridge but is sometimes called Natural Arch. It is a stunning waterfall found in Springbrook National Park in Queensland, Australia. I was blessed the day we visited, we had been there for a little while and I had already taken a heap of photos but then the sun found an area through the trees to shine through making my photos all the better. The reflection from the sun on the water was reflecting up onto the roof of the cave highlighting it's fabulous textures and colours.

Next frame from "Endangered Species" series. Pretty long exposure shot of a beautiful sunset at the Baltic Sea coast, nearby the gates to the port of Klaipeda. Pretty stormy skies, but still with touch of colors from the dawning sun at the horizon. A long piece of wood as a perfect foreground leading the eye to the endless sea. Enjoy the scenery!

The Port of Saint-Tropez is pretty much exactly what you'd imagine: tasteful, elegant, and filled with expensive sailing boats and yachts. I visited this beautiful city in the south of France last October and had the chance to walk along the port in the early evening hours. There was so much activity in restaurants and shops that it was a lovely experience.
Yep, that sure is an amazing place. Thank you for sharing your experience from there Matt.
A look at the colorful fishing village of Riomaggiore, one of the five Cinque Terre wonders, located in the Liguria region (northwestern Italy) ... The dramatic cloudy sky and the rough sea helped for the perfect setting!
Those colors are incredible!
Indeed Matt!
Whole of that region is absolutely stunning and you picture is the prove of that.
Thanks Tomas! Cheers!
Senhora da Paz is a small chapel on the Acores island Sao Miguel. The stairs on the way up to the chapel are symbolizing the suffering of Jesus Christ. You should definately do these stairs because you will have an amazing view down the sea.
Thank you so much for your submission. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today. Tomas
Amazing as usually :)
Thanks :)
Lake in Sweden
Sweden is known as the home to many beautiful lakes and this one is no exception. Luckily, the weather had finally cleared up when I arrived at this lake and it was a welcome stop on my way from Trondheim in Norway to Stockholm.

I have also posted this photo on my blog.

It was so calm indeed! Thanks for your comment 😀
That is just fantastic!
Thanks Tomas!
Sandy Beach, Isle of Eigg
One of the things that made Scotland such a special place to photograph was the way that its weather was ever-changing. I’d never experienced a place whose moods could change as rapidly as Scotland’s. A sky that seemed to promise only rain and leaden clouds could crack open and sunlight would stream through.
Very interesting image indeed!
A marvelous feat of engineering and a photographers delight. This is Puente Nuevo and its surrounding area. A majestic 200+-year-old structure with beautiful views on both sides from the top of the structure, begging to be photographed. A must see if you're in the area around Ronda, in Andalusia (Spain).
Wow, that truly is gorgeous!
This photo could also be from my home country Slovenia, but it is not. It is from French Alps. I was on cycling trip there last July. I had amazing time cycling though all these hills and mountains. Fresh air and nature all around you is precious.

I thought it was from Austria, haha..... fantastic:)
Metropolitan Magesty
Came accross this scene while showing my buddy around Madrid. I love the aesthetic of triangular buildings like both the Metropolis building and the Grassy building we see here side by side. Although built a decade after by a different architect, they share a similar architectural style. Thank you
My apologies for the low quality. For some reason I kept getting upload errors when trying to upload the full size image :,(
Thank you so much for your participation with this wonderful image. Have a great day. Tomas
Thank you Tomas, I look forward to your competition every week
Western Tatra Mountains in November. I took this photo on my way to Grześ Mountain in Poland. It's not very high mountain, not difficult to hike there but the view is really beautiful.
Top of the world! What a scenery, love it!
Thank you :)
At first sight pretty usual shot of the sea, but at the same time a lot atmospheric. Sun spot on the sea surface brings even more interest to the scene. Shot at Baltic Sea coastline, nearby Klaipeda, Lithuania
Enjoy it!
