7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #20 – winner announcement!
@mibreit-photo Australian Monday entry:
The spectacular view from the top of Roy's Peak on New Zealand's south island. It's 1400meters up from the car park just a few miles outside of Wanaka. I was up there for sunset and was the only person staying in the freezing November winds. It was great to have such a view for myself :-)

@photofreediver Tuesday of Antarctica and world´s oceans entry:
To see icebergs in Greenland is the dream of many people. For our freedivers team this was also the purpose of our trip. But on the tops of the icebergs, we certainly did not stop. We became one of the first people in the World who saw the beauty and grandeur of the underwater part of the ice giants.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday #20 – winner announcement!
@ansharphoto African Wednesday entry:
Quiver Trees at Dawn, Namibia. My first day in Namibia did not disappoint. I traveled with a group of photographers to the Quiver Forest, a place for which the photographs had not prepared me. The Quiver Forest is actually privately-owned land — the Guriganus Farm — and the “trees” which make up this otherworldly forest are not actually trees at all, but plants. Their fibrous trunks are easy to hollow out and were once widely used as quivers for arrows.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – European Thursday #20 – winner announcement!
@skiesandsports European Thursday entry:
Lake District Sunrise. This one is from my favourite place in the world, the Lake District here in the UK. It's such an incredible place - unsurprisingly FULL of lakes! - and perfect for sunrise/sunset shoots looking over the incredible landscape! If you are ever in the UK I'll give you one tip, don't bother with London, that's not even close to the best part of the UK!!

Sucre, the capital of Bolivia, is an amazing city. While in the closeby city of Potosí huge amounts of silver were mined, the rich mine owners preferred to live in Sucre and built a beautiful white city. The church you see in the background is San Felipe Neri, one of my favourite buildings in Sucre.

After a few hours' hike from the village El Chaltén in Argentina, I reached this turquoise glacier lake in front of Mount Fitz Roy. It is an unforgettable experience trekking in this region with magnificent peaks and stunning waterways.

Easter Island Chile.
Moai at Ahu Tongariki
My Girlfriend and I got to explore Easter Island for 6 days at the start of 2017. We hired a scooter and rode around the island. I got to snap this photo with the little bird sitting on the Moai 's head, which I thought was pretty rad :) Easter Island has left an impression on me that will last a lifetime.

Bolivia for me is South America’s most underrated country. This photo portrays just how colorful and breathtakingly beautiful the country is. Southern Bolivia is one of my absolute favorite regions in the country. You can book multiple day jeep tours crossing national reserves and mountain peaks and you will see nature at its finest.

Machu Picchu is one of those places one has to visit in his lifetime. So during our travels through Peru we made sure to include it in our travel itinerary. When we went up in the morning though, it was raining and there was no magic light, which I was hoping for. But standing there was still a magical experience.

At the high plateaus of the chilean Andes I discovered this bunch of cute donkeys standing in the dry desert in front of black vulcanoes. The threatening dark clouds of a upcoming bad weather front fit nicely to the black vulcanoes and give the image more dramatic...

I travelled the Paso de Jama (a mountain pass) between Salta in Argentina and San Pedro de Atacama in Chile. The scenery is out of this world. This road is full of hairpin turns and bends and with an altitude of almost 5.000 metres, you have to be cautious not to get sick.

The Bay of Juangriego, Margarita - Venezuela.
View from a restaurant in the Bay
Located northwest of the Isla de Margarita, the Bay of Juangriego emerges with its imposing beach guarded by the Fort of La Galera and its incredible sunsets of reddish to golden hues considered one of the most beautiful twilights of Venezuela. In addition, the Bay is an ideal place for fishing and tourism since there are many restaurants located just meters from the beach where you can see the beautiful sunsets.

This photo was taken on Playa Negra in Costa Rica, which is a black sand beach that stretches more than 10 km. It´s beautiful, very calm black sand beach where you can find many sand dollars . Best thing about Black Beach is its simple beauty (no people, no bars).

Welcome to the jungle! One of many wooden bridges found in the Manzanillo National Park in Costa Rica. I well remember all the sounds of the jungle (cicadas, howler monkeys, parrots etc) while taking this shot. It was a truly unique experience and unforgettable hike.

Marble Caves - Chile
For over thousands of years, the waters of General Carrera Lake and the Patagonian wind have moulded the marbles here, creating a series of tunnels and caves, which are breathtaking. To get there you have to reach the village of Puerto Rio Tranquilo in Chile and hire a boat, as that is the only way to get to them.

I took this picture during a reed boat ride on the Titicaca Lake on the border of Bolivia and Peru. The lake is full of small floating islands fashioned by the indigenous people living there. They simply look other worldly. I was lucky to be there on a wonderful sunny day and the colours were just amazing.

The Mucubají Lagoon
It is located in the Sierra Nevada Park, in the state of Merida, Venezuela. It is one of the largest lagoons in the region. It is believed that the name of the lagoon is due to the name of the indigenous inhabitants of the region. Mucubají means in this language "large water site". The lagoon is of glacial origin and is about ten thousand years old.

When I was in Peru, I decided to go explore Titicaca Lake and took a 3 days tour to see how people lived on the islands. Visited three islands and saw how people lived in a very rustic way. This picture is from the path that goes around Amantani island.

Ouro Preto - Brazil
Ouro Preto is one of the oldest cities in Brazil, even though it is only 306 years old. Ouro means gold and Preto is black. In 1730 the population here was 80 thousand people. At that time even New York only had half of this population. But the gold rush came to an end and now tourism is what brings the money. It is one of the most visited historical cities in Brazil and it is worth a visit. The colonial architecture is wonderful and very well preserved. The old town is a UNESCO heritage site since 1980.

Salvador de Bahia, Brazil was one of the most dangerous places I have ever visited. This city is very ambiguous: on one hand it has plenty of historical buildings and nice views, on the other one, one can worry so much about saftey that it is difficult to enjoy the walk. This is one of the landscapes seen on the famous seafront.
