Hello fellow Steemians!
Welcome to my 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Australian Monday - where the winner of the weekly round will be able to participate for the total of 200 SBD! Today, you can participate by submitting your personal pictures from your travels to the continent of Australia. I am also adding New Zealand to the same challenge as there were some concerns from other Steemians as to which continent NZ belongs to.

@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.

North of Sydney there is a place called Wiseman Ferry where there is a short car ferry service that let you cross the Hawkesbury River. After crossing, if you follow the road you will drive along the river, through fields, then eventually reach this cross road in the middle of nowhere, where there is a pub, and a park on the opposite side of the road. The park was extremely quiet and tranquil. As we were strolling along the park on a find morning, a truck drove past, creating dusts that made sun ray visible through the canopies of the many trees in the park. I quickly took a shot before the dust dies down and this is one of the pictures.

Wisemans Ferry is a lovely place. I lived in Penrith for a while and would fish the Nepean and Hawkesbury regularly. Now, they have cut out all the scrub that fronted the river and it looks like some sort of wasteland :(

I haven't been for a while. I remember really enjoying the drive once we crossed the river. It's a pity if it looks like some sort of wasteland around the river now

Hi Tomas,
I am currently travelling so I am unable to submit my photos to your challenges every day as I do normally.
However, together with @for91days, @adonisabril and @rimicane I have launched a major project to improve the experience for all travel bloggers and people looking to discover travel-related content on Steemit. Since you are posting about travel yourself and care about the future of Steemit, I would like to ask you to have a look at our introduction post:
https://steemit.com/travelfeed/@travelfeed/introducing-travelfeed-featuring-steemit-s-best-travel-content
Thanks a lot and greetings from Morocco where I am currently travelling and taking photos for the African Wednesdays to come!
Julian
And I also have a photo submission for today :)
Australia is a paradise for surfers. They even named a city after that: In the background of this photo, you can spot the skyline of Surfers Paradise, a city in Queensland on Australia's East Coast. I loved the sunny weather and the beaches!

Hello Julian! I was wondering why I have not had any entries from you recently! I did check your new project and have to say that I am very, very pleased you guys have come up with something like this. The more people we will have to take care of curation of a good content (does not necessarily have to be a photography), the more talent we will be able to attract and retain here on Steemit helping its future growth! Do I qualify to use the tag:)? Tomas
PS: Enjoy your travels and take heaps of pics!

Minutes after the sun rises and the weather cleared up I faced this awesome view from the northern New Zealand island, close to Robin hood bay.
What a spectacular view for a classic morning after spending the night sleeping in the car.

My entry for today ;
I passed this dessert road, on my way to Wellington. After many days of rained, i felt so grateful that finally the sky is blue, and i could see the mountain on the backgrounds. I stop on the side of the road and captured this contrast pictures of blue and brown scenery. I also love the clouds shape above the mountain peak.

Another photo from my road trip along Australia's east coast back in 2016. This was taken at Cape Hillsborough during sunrise. This is a very special place, because you will encounter kangaroos and wallabies at the beach in the morning. Unfortunately they had decided to play at the other end of the beach that morning, so I didn't manage to photograph them.

In a hot afternoon last month, we drove to the beach of Watsons Bay in East Sydney, and found it's incredibly packed. So we walked on a bit north to the Camp Cove Beach where it's quiet with lots of free space. Soon the sun started setting, when I clicked this photo overlooking the city center.

On our way to Mount Cook we stopped at Lake Pukaiki to see the amazing color of the lake. The lake’s blue tones are from finely ground minerals carried in the glacier-fed waters that runs to the lake.

We took this photo on the Bondi to Coogee walk. These two beaches are one of the most famous ones in Sydney and to see the two beaches over the one path is definitely something special. There are many scenery around for photo enthusiast and also a great path for people just want to do some exercise.

Story Bridge in Brisbane Australia
This is located at Bradfield Highway, Kangaroo Point, Queensland, Australia. It is one of the well-known bridge in Australia. Actually, that’s the famous landmark of Brisbane City. My brother lives to a nearby suburb so we usually pass that bridge whenever we visit my other sibling who lives in Morayfield. I went there last year but now I'm back here in the Phlippines. At night time you can see the sparklng different colors of the bridge and that time it so happen that its the purple light shines on the bridge and it reflected as well to the river as you can see in the photo.

Sunset over East Basin, Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra sets not only the sky on fire, but the water also. Black swans cruise across the water like silhouettes framed by the pink tinge in a way that can only be observed for a minute, but which will be remembered for ever.

Last year we went to Magnetic Island and were unlucky because the koala sanctuary was closed. So we took a huge hike instead and that's were we found this mummie koala with her baby. Barely 5 meter above us sitting all relaxed. It instantly made our day!

A view of Melbourne CBD towers from the royal botanical gardens. On a clear sunny day, I decided to explore the gardens and was fascinated by the peaky holes between trees. I love how the trees create a leafy frame and the contrast between the man-made buildings and the natural form of the leaves!

Here we have a zoomed in screenshot of one of Australias around 2000 species of native bee.
This guy was snapped in the northside of Brisbane in Queensland in my old vegetable garden helping to pollinate my Citrus.
The scientific name for this particular bee is Tetragonula carbonaria and is commonly known as a Stingless or Sugar bag bee.
