It would be great if you can visit their blogs and appreciate their awesome photography skills with some upvotes.

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

When I lived in Chile, I traveled through its fantastic long land. Compared to Patagonia in the south, the Atacama region in the north offers more otherworldly views. This is a picture I took there in the Moon Valley at sunset. It felt so surreal surrounded by the orange moon-like landscape, with the photogenic Licancabur Volcano in the distance.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Asian Sunday week #24 – winner announcement!

@racheleecious Asian Sunday entry:

This was taken last year when we go to a trip in Albay, Philippines. This is the perfect coned shape volcano, the Mayon Volcano. I took this picture because of the perfect reflection of its image in the ricefield with water. This volcano explodes last January 2018. Mayon is the one of the many tourist destination here in the Philippines.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #24 – winner announcement!

@akirachang Australian Monday entry:

I took this photo at Brisbane story bridge. It is a heritage-listed steel cantilever bridge connecting northern and southern Brisbane. At night, the bridge's purple lights lit up half of the Brisbane river into a deep purple colour. Conjunction with the building light beside, It makes a great contrast at night. A really unique scenery in Brisbane Australia.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans week #24 – winner announcement!

@dmytrokorol Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans entry:

Morning on Praia do Pinhao in Lagos, Portugal. I wasn't sure I need to get off the bed that rainy morning and drive 30 km to this beach, but I glad I did it. A thin line of clear sky appeared on the horizon just in time to show let the rising sun enlighten everything around.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – African Wednesday week #24 – winner announcement!

@fjorenca African Wednesday entry:

This picture was taken at sunset in the Erg Chebbi dunes of Morocco. Our caravan stopped to enjoy the color transformations of the desert. Even my camel seemed to be admiring the sunset. I asked our berber guide if he ever gets sick of this view. He said "The desert is my home; this is where I feel that I belong."

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – European Thursday week #24 – winner announcement!

@francismoure European Thursday entry:

This is a photo taken in Russia, specifically in the red square of Moscow, where it is shown to the Cathedral of St. Basil, at night it looks much more spectacular than in the day, this is a very famous cathedral, mostly because of its domes in the shape of a bulb, for us tourists. But without a doubt it is a very beautiful place.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – North American Friday week #24 – winner announcement!

@scottshots North American Friday entry:

Back in March 2016, I was incredibly lucky to shoot the famous Fly Geyser. It was tough for most photographers to shoot because it sat on protected private property in Nevada, USA near the town of Gerlach. A good friend of mine met the property owner by chance and we ended up with the elusive permission to photograph it. The property is now owned by Burning Man. Visiting the geyser is currently not allowed but it looks like they will be opening the area to visitors in the future. This is a 30 second shot, lit with a headlamp.
