@justdentist Tuesday of Antarctica and the world's oceans entry:

Life, Food, Adventure - Water is the elixir of life!

The world oceans feed people, they connect people, they can be peaceful and dangerous at once. Today we can even generate energy by tidal forces or wave energy power plants.
The fishermen look so peaceful during the sunset at the beach in Tarifa, Spain. It's the Atlantic coastline where the image was taken.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #12 – winner announcement!

@bollutech African Wednesday entry:

I enjoyed my days at Samburu National Reserve because this reserve is a rugged and semi-desert park located in Samburu district in the Rift Valley Province of Kenya. The park neighbors the homes of the Samburu tribe of Kenya, a tribe known for their remote culture, pastoral and nomadic way of life.
This park has retained a naturally serene and quiet feeling. Besides the numerous wildlife found in this game reserve, the park is also a bird haven.

When I visited Iceland recently, I had a chance to step onto a glacier. I've been on one before in Alaska, but it's really an incredible experience to walk onto sheer ice that extends for miles and miles. There are other pictures that show exactly where the ice starts, but I've always loved this one that shows what it looks like looking towards the icy horizon. Btw, it's not nearly as cold as the picture looks!

Awesome! Never been to Iceland. Wish I can go next year.

Wow, very interesting, very beatiful!

Copenhagen - CPH

One of the greatest cites I've been to is Copenhagen, the danish capital. The city is filled with bikes, the danish people are great and there is so much to explore. Also I love cities where ferries are cheap and part of the public transportation system like in Hamburg.

La Sagrada Familia the unfinished master piece of the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí, located in Barcelona. The photo shows the Passion Façade, and it is decorated with sculptures depicting the passion of Christ.
This basilica is a landmark of Barcelona.

Cala Galdana in Menorca is one of the most popular places in Menorca. Surrounded by cliffs the sea is very calm, so families with small children feel safe to rest here. Though now everything is closed, with coming of warmth life will start here again!

Great photo!

Thank you so much for a great submission. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming soon. Tomas

The old fishing towns on the greek coast are full of character and colour. This photo was taken in the ancient town of Methoni on the Peloponnese peninsula. The town is more known for it's tourists than it's fishermen these days.

I visited Prague this year in June. While the weather was not always sunny, I got lucky this day and was able to capture this shot near Karlův Most (Charles Bridge) at the start of Golden Hour.

Once again, this truly is an amazing pic!

That's a fantastic picture 😃

Location: Iceland.

Thank you so much for a great submission. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming soon. Tomas

I usually prefer southern seaside destinations in Europe but I must admit that Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania, made a good impression on me too. This is a view of the city center where you can find both modern high-rise buildings as well as old historical houses. Photo taken in April 2015 :)

I took this photograph on a beautiful summer evening in Amsterdam. Riana and I spent all day exploring this beautiful and infamous city by foot. I loved it and the city only really comes alive at night!

Thank you for your contribution. I love Amsterdam myself!

Without a doubt, Paris is one of the choices travel destinations in the world.

My uncle and his wife went for their honeymoon at the City of Light which offers the best of everything from historic cathedrals and incomparable museums to stylish boutiques and unbeatable cuisine.
Undoubtedly, with this picture he captured in the plane.. I finally accepted that It's the most beautiful city in France....

Location; Paris, France

Hi! How did he actually capture the image off the plane?

Firstly, only the use of personal images to be used, not friends, neither family... However, this image just seems to be copied of the internet which I can post links for. The same goes for an African Wednesday that I picked you as a winner.

Kindly provide an ownership of your images. I would like to stress out that the plagiarism will not be tolerated on my blog or elsewhere. That is only ruining the reputation of the whole platform and individuals engaging in such a behavior will be voted off by the community since there is no space for them.

I do apologize in advance if I am wrong. Kindly explain, I sincerely hope you can.

Tomas

Thank you Tomas , None of my pictures were product of plagiarism , I take photography as one of my priorities and I do post most of my travel post on social platform for making friends .... I don't plagiarise ,you can check my blog and confirm the plagiarism off .

Thank you in advance as you will understand that I dont post any pictures that arent mine.

I got this picture some days ago from my uncle because he knows I blog about photography ... That was why I shared this .

Kindly considered this void if it does not meet the requirement of the convener.

Thanks

Ok, just do me a favor please and provide a proof of an ownership of the image that you submitted for my Prague photo sharing challenge. Kindly do that in the post where you submitted your photo from Prague. Thanks a million. Tomas

I've done that Tomas , I really appreciate your support and love. Thanks a bunch

Hello @czechglobalhosts , i'm sorry for any inconvenience my recent submission might have caused.

I hope I can still continue with the one am real about and I will surely prove myself right for you... Thanks

Today I chose photo of Sagrada Família from Barcelona, April 2016, Spain. Its a photo of a Gaudi's unfinished masterpiece. Probably, the most famous and admired Catalan architect. I had never seen something so beautiful and thoughtful. The architecture is beyond words.

Thank you so much for your entry but I have selected other images to go further at this time. Have a great day.

I know that Paris is city of love, but for me its Prague. This photo was taken while I was there with my girlfriend and we had the most romantic travel ever. Imagine just two of you sitting and watching this. Perfection!

St Mark's church in Zagreb, also the symbol of the city.
Probably my favorite church in Europe. It has a lovely colourful roof. This 19th century church is beautifully located in the part of Zagreb's upper town. I did a stopover in Zagreb, hadn't expected it to be actually a very lovely city. This church surprised me a lot.

Thank you so much for your entry but I have selected other images to go further at this time. Have a great day.

No problem! :) I’ll try again next time.

This is the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin. This picture was taken in January 2016. I think the snow and the grey sky add something different to the picture.

Hi all, today's photo comes from the Spanish town of Segovia. Pictured here is the famous Aqueduct of Segovia, one of the best-preserved elevated Roman aqueducts remaining today! The exact date of construction of the aqueduct is unknown but it's thought to have been around since roughly the 1st Century AD. It's incredible that something like this has been able to hold up so well over all this time! It's definitely worth seeing if you ever get the chance to visit for yourself!

Okay, thanks anyway!
