7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Asian Sunday week #32 – winner announcement!

@travelshots Asian Sunday entry:

The Marina Bay Sands Hotel is one of Singapores landmarks. Unfortunately it's allowed only for hotel guests to relax at the infinity pool on the top. Nevertheless it's possible for everyone to buy a ticket for the "Skypark" that is located right next to the pool. So you can enjoy the same breathtaking view of Singapores skyline from there!

@mibreit-photo Australian Monday entry:

Dinosauer Eggs at Moeraki beach.. Or mayby just uniquely formed rocks?? In any case it's a extraordinary location with all those round boulders littering the sand. The morning I visited I was even lucky with the light and got those beautiful pastle colors.

Last week, after some meetings on the westside of Los Angeles, I drove down to Manhattan Beach (just south of Santa Monica) for the sunset. I was kinda on the fence, but since I was so close I decided to do it. And I'm glad I did. I caught a lovely sunset over the Pacific Ocean and as a bonus, the traffic for my drive home was so much lighter since it was later in the day. I'd call it a win-win!

The island of Tenerife is a great place to shoot seascape photography because it lies in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. So the only thing that can block your pictures are just clouds. That's one of the reasons why I come back every year, and every time I bring pictures like this one.

I am glad to hear that you return year after year since all your pics from there are terrific!

A different perspective of the ocean is to look at the waves. This was taken at Watson's Bay, NSW, where large waves from the sea batters the cliff side. Isn't it amazing that this day-in-day-out motion is what is responsible to the beautiful rugged coastline and rocky cliffs that we often see? The power of persistence indeed!

Amazing how powerful water and waves are since day can change the shape of rocks and entire landscapes after endless beating thousands and thousands of years.

This is Praia da Marinaha at sunrise. It is located in the south of Portugal near Lagos and considered as one of the most beautiful beaches of the world. It is surrounded by high spectacular cliffs. You can walk along the cliff or go down to sunbath or swim...

Beautiful shot.

Simply stunning. Thank you so much for your participation. Tomas

Standing right on the edge of an underwater cliff, waiting for the waves to explode in the air just in front of my face. I've never felt before doing it! the power of nature is very calming. Here on picture, a good friend of mine: Felix facing the waves.

Looks like a fun thing to do. Great image as well.

It is very a very fun thing to do and it is very refreshing indeed :)

Thanks for the compliment.

Beautiful sky light at sunset. After sunset out the light in small clouds I am very happy to be able to enjoy the atmosphere of the sunset because it can see a very good light beam to the sky. This photo I took at the tourist attraction Lhok sedu Lepung Aceh Besar Indonesia.

The sky is bleeding. Those colors are just amazing.

That is to the beautiful sky at sunset.
Thank you @czechglobalhosts

Twilight at the westernmost shore of Sumatra island gives a tremendous sensation.
how not the sea that directly facing the Indian Ocean becomes the best spot for the current tourist spot for local and foreign tourists, and the sea waves for the surfers of the world was located in this one place, located in Lampuuk Village, Lhoknga Aceh Besar.

a moment I arrived at sea lhoknga aceh, Indonesia. a ship stands a few days and they surf in the sea. the charm of Lhoknga aceh beach has its own attraction for tourists who visit, big waves and the beauty of the beach becomes the main choice. regards

That is a pretty terrific image. Thank you so much for sharing it with all of us. Tomas

I got this photo when heading out to the Islas Ballestas offshore from Paracas, Peru that are known as "the backpacker's Galapagos". An abundance of birds and other animals are gathering on the rocky islands.

Faubulous as always. Thank you so much!

Marvelous clouds are rising behind the mountains near the Antarctic Sea. The sunlight elevating them into a dramatic landscape in the sky. Even though this is one of the harshest places on earth, it's beauty and mystery still lures us there to watch in awe.

Yep, that is a real beauty of nature. It is fascinating how man species can survive in those conditions.

Absolutely. I love this part of the world so mysterious and great.

While diving on the USS Oriskany, which is a WWII Aircraft Carrier, I was coming up from my dive and found myself in the middle of lots of jelly fish. They were mesmerizing as they floated by. It took me a few minutes before I remember I had my camera with me. I couldn't stop watching them floating away. Luckily I grabbed this one shot before they were gone.

What a great close up. Fantastic!

Thank you

Waddensea

This small island is called Oland, it's a Hallig. Located in the Waddensea off the shore in Germany. People permanently live on this Hallig and the houses are elevated in the middle that the water won't destroy them. But there is no road to the island just an old mine rail way to transport goods.

Winter cold sunset at Baltic Sea. A stone in the sea with an ice formation on top enjoying alone this colourful evening. Perfect colors and a bit of long exposure
But be aware not to get too much into your dreams, you can get frozen same as that stone. If remember right, air temperature that evening was something about -20 degrees :)

Enjoy too!

Great shot. That sky is amazing.

I took this photo on the coast of Kuala Cut, Lampuuk, Aceh Besar some time ago, when the beach was the arrival of a sailing ship belonging to the state of Australia. where his crew members play surfing.
yes, beach kuala cut Lampuuk is indeed famous for the World-class waves.
so no wonder if many local and foreign tourists who come to this beach.

Boulders Beach-Cap town..
What a beautiful discovery that this beach! White sand, turquoise water, it's almost like Seychelles! Wonderful moments with all these penguins walking just meters from you. A ballad to do.
NB: Please respect the instructions, do not touch them, do not disturb them. Enjoy this magical moment.

World Ocean's.
Scubadiving is a great way to explore the ocean. Deep down in the ocean, there is so much to see. Beautiful colors and strange animals. For example these 2 mating nudi branches on the coral. We found them at the Celebes Sea, close to Sipadan, Malaysia.

The light of Aceh .
Aceh is famous for its natural beauty and its culture is no exception to the beauty of the sea that lure the local and foreign tourists to come to Aceh in order to mmenikmati the Aceh sea and try to dance on it by surfing and WindSurfing or trying to ferocious waves of Aceh.

I am back from my double vacations and ready to share some of my experiences with you through @czechglobalhosts daily challenges :)

Today I am entering with photo of Adriatc Sea (hope that sea counts in ocean's challenge) from where I just returned. I was on 5 days long holidays at Mali Losinj in Croatia. Time spend there was amazing. Just relaxing and exploring the island. It was my first time there but I am sure not the last!

I met these two guys while snorkeling at the Galapagos Islands. I was so surprised to see how trusting these sea lions were. There behaviour was similar to an untrained dog, they whirled around you, pulled on your shorts and loved to catch the GoPro.

Underwater photography is a perfect gateway to your imagination. Let yourself go! Maratua Island - BORNEO.

This is a very cool shot. One word of advice though, for your entry to be considered it needs to have a 30-50 word description.

Yeh, shame it does not comply with the guidelines as it really is an amazing pic!

Sorry... I did not pay attention.

Wow ! I'm at a loss for words at how stunning this picture really is !

Thank you. Nice from you

The towns of the sea in Venezuela are synonymous with tranquility, work, culture and hope. Every dawning the people go to work to return in the middle of the morning and sell the gifts from the sea to be able to subsist.

I would like to present a photo made by me on the White Sea. In the place where the Onega River flows into the White Sea there is a beautiful island called Kiy. If you get the chance to visit this place, do not postpone for later. Look at the White Nights of the Arctic with your own eyes!
