7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – North American Friday – winner announcement!

Hello fellow steemians!

It is my great pleasure to announce the winner of 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - North American Friday. I would like to say huge thank you to all the participants for their great entries. The amount of entries yesterday was pretty good with a high quality images so it was rather hard to decide on the winning one. I would like to stress out that it is not always the picture itself but also the fact that the image needs a proper description somewhere around 30 to 50 words. It is shame to get a beautiful image that I cannot pick as the winning one since there is only few words added to it. Please bear that in mind for your next entries.

You can see all entries and participants at this post: 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - North American Friday - the absolute winner takes 150 SBD!

Please give a huge shout out to all for taking part in the challenge and sharing their photos and experience with all of us here on steemit:

It would be great if you can visit their blogs and give them some of your love:)....

However, the winner is only one and that is for me picture posted by @justdentist with the following entry:

Crazy Horseshoe Bend - My wife, @tabealouise, visited this spot in 2006. No people, no trail, pure wilderness. Today, May 2016, a huge parking lot, buses full of tourists and a perfectly paved trail. Too bad but that's the way it is. Still a fantastic view and crazy tourists taking selfies on the edge of the cliff 😂

What an amazing image from @justdentist for the North American Challenge. He is submitting some amazing images time after time. I have visited @justdentist blog and upvoted his post called: Banks Peninsula - a beautiful place on earth 🇳🇿 / Meeting penguins in the wilderness. @justdentist stunning picture from the Horseshoe Bend is qualifying for a weekly challenge that will be competing against the winning images from the past continents as below and the one coming from todays South American Saturday.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday - winner announcement!

@bypaul entry post for Asian Sunday is below:

This summer I traveled through Thailand. At the end of my journey I visited the nationalpark Khao sok. It consists mainly of a huge artificial lake which was made 40 years ago. This shot was in the calm of the rising morning mist with the dead trees from 40 years ago poking through the surface of the calm water.

@justdentist entry post for Australian Monday is below:

I want to share this beautiful picture of the Banks Peninsula south of Christchurch with you. We went "Penguin Watching", saw an yellow-eyed penguin and all in all it was one of the most gorgeous day trips during our NZ roundtrip.

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

@kuenok entry post of Antarctica and the world’s oceans :

This is a shot taken at Vava'u in the Kingdom of Tonga where humpback whales migrate as far as 5000kms each year from Antarctica to give birth to these wonderful new borns in the warm waters of the Pacific. Once hunted to the brink of extinction for their oil and meat, every new born calf is a reason to celebrate as their numbers are slowly restored. 😊

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

@extremejogging African Wednesday entry:

The adult elephants of the family are normally very protective of their babies and are basically always next to them. This little guy was running around exploring... I guess there is always 'that kid' in the family. ;) How cute is this little guy!?

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

@bypaul European Thursday entry:

I was hiking solo for 2 days. On the second day the trail was much harder than I thought. To get to the last summit I had to climb a very steep wall of gravel and stones. Eventhough I go rockclimbing and therefore am not scared of heights this was scary! The 10kg backpack was always pulling me backwards. In the end I crawled up. As soon as I reached the top I saw this breathtaking scenery!

The winner of the weekly challenge will be selected by you based on the dollar value of the individual daily winner announcement posts and then entered to a mothly and possibly yearly challenge on the way to win the price of 150 SBD in total. You can give @justdentist your support by upvoting this winner announcement post.

My next challenge is coming shortly: South American Saturday. Get your pictures ready:)....
