7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Asian Sunday week #23 – winner announcement!
@h2odigital Asian Sunday entry:
This is a picture of The Petrona Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. They were the tallest building in the world until 2004. I went all the way to the top and it was a good experience, but it was raining and the views weren't that good. However, the view of the building from groundlevel did not disappoint. It is an amazing building!

@eaglest Tuesday of Antarctica and world´s oceans entry:
One of the most beautiful beaches of Tenerife is Playa de Almaciga. This coast with lots of cliffs and rocks and steep mountains is a stunning location. For this image I waited until the lights of the town of Almaciga started to shine. The glowing town makes a nice contrast to the dark mountains behind.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #23 – winner announcement!
@ansharphoto African Wednesday entry:
Dunes of Sossusvlei, Namibia. In Sossusvlei, the wonder is the land itself. The area is famous for its massive sand dunes, sculpted and smoothed by the wind in a desert completely devoid of surface water. The same winds that create the dunes also change them, and the sinuous lines and forms that amaze today may be different tomorrow. Even their colors change, the striking terra cotta easing into browns and beiges as the sun waxes and wanes.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – European Thursday week #23 – winner announcement!
@liseykina European Thursday entry:
Warshaw, Poland. This in sunrise at the square in old town of Warshaw.
This part of town was completele reconstructed after WWII but despite the fact that there are no ancient buildings here is very cozy and nice. These bright colors in the dawn sky made me run out of the hotel room almost barefoot. Had to hurry to reach the desired point of shooting until the sky is not extinguished.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – North American Friday week #23 – winner announcement!
@kieranstone North American Friday entry:
New York. I could live here... To me, this realisation is what makes for a perfect destination. The feeling that you belong somewhere, even when it is on the other side of the world, is why I travel. This shot is from Brooklyn looking back towards Manhattan during one of the best sunsets I've ever seen.

i cant explain you that your photography how much beautiful.... i impressed to see this photography in this contest.... i waiting for next post.....
All the pictures are quite impressive. So much quality in just one post!
I absolutely love @ansharphoto's shot of the Namibian desert. The shaded silhouette of the sand dune and the juxtaposition with the trees are make for a beautiful composition. Beautiful!
Some amazing images! The tree image especially stood out to me (all are amazing, but that is my favourite!). Funnily enough I then realised it is from home... It's amazing the places that you never know you live right next to until you see amazing pictures like this!
