7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Australian Monday week #38 - winner announcement!

@mibreit-photo Australian Monday entry:

Already Monday again :-) Today I show you a photo from my first trip to New Zealand back in 2014. The weather on the North Island wasn't very good and we had to cancle many of our plans. But down in the south-east at Castlepoint a spell of sunny weather was forecast. So we drove down there and it was a great decision. The Castlepoint Lighthouse with Castlerock in the distance is such a beautiful subject to photograph. And asside from that there's also a beautiful beach and some steep cliffs to explore.

Alaska Humpback.jpg

There are few things as impressive as the sight of a 30 tonne Humpback whale breaching. Shot taken from a sailboat near Five Finger Islands Lighthouse in South East Alaska, USA . The area is a hotspot for humpacks due to the convergence and up welling of deep ocean currents.

So jealous right now. I would love to go and get awesome photos like this. This is amazing. Great shot Robert.

You will one day !

What an amazing encounter to witness! Thank you for sharing.

This is the most beautiful beach to enjoy the sunset in the afternoon, the only beach of Banda Aceh City. And one of the favorite places of banda aceh residents to buy fish that is netted by "Tarek Pukat", coastal fisherman here every day catching fish in the morning, afternoon, and evening.

Amazing colors! Thank you for submitting your image in today's contest. Tomas

Thank you for the great contest Tomas.

Aceh that called the nickname "Serambi Mecca" is an area that stores so many points of popular tourist destinations.
One of them is the sea "Lhoknga" which is located at the westernmost of sumatera island and facing directly to Indian Ocean make this sea become the most favorite place in Aceh to enjoy the sunset.

Nice. Looks so tranquil.

Tremendous as always!



Enjoy the beauty of the beach and the sunset in the "puloet" (Aceh).
The beach is located at the end of "Great Aceh" and travels about 50 kilometers from the city "Banda Aceh" The sea is directly opposite the strait of the Indies. In addition to offering beauty, the waves on this beach is quite large and tall. This beach is rarely visited because of the ferocity of the waves.

What a wonderful image!

Hehehehe. Thank you so much

An evening well spend on a Sri Lankan beach near by Colombo... I felt like an extraterrestrial wearing my swimming pants as everyone else was wearing clothes and umbrellas!

Beautiful. So many people on the beach ! I would love to travel Sri Lanka

Thank you :)

Sri Lanka is amazing! I can only recall good memories from my travel time o et there.

I know exactly what you are talking about as I was at that place a little while back.

Hahaha, I feel a little less on my own

It was really strange to see all these guys coming all dressed to the beach!

Tasman Sea at Sunrise

Golden hour is my favourite time to capture the beauty of the sea. This beach on Tasmania is located right next to the campground that I was staying at, so I had no problem getting up early to capture the sunrise.

Tremendous image!

Fishermen off the coast of Bohol.
I caught this scenery on our way back from Bohol to Cebu. Those Fishermen, the clouds and the setting sun provided for one of my favorite shots on the Philippines. I think it is still part of the Sulu Sea. Shot with the Sigma 50-100mm 1,8f Artlens. Dec'17

Thank you so much for your wonderful entry. Have a great day.

You are very welcome! Anytime ;) You too! Looking forward to the winning piece. Your contest dig up the hidden talent on this platform.

The lhoknga sea is named after the beach of babah kuala located in the village of mon ikeun lhoknga aceh The sea is very much the end of its time when the east season arrives because this sea has a very good waves for surfing gamers. The coastal beach of babah kuala has excellent coral plants and sheltered coral and its beaches are also very clear. Clear sea water has no contamination. Hopefully my friends like this beach kuala beach.

That looks so calm and peaceful!

Thanks @czechglobalhosts it's just a coincidence that when the water recedes on the beach this babah kuala has no waves. Because it has been blocked with coral plants in saaat new tide is a very big waves.

This is the beach of Pampatar, on the island of Margarita, Venezuela. A beach with little waves, only breaks a wave at the same time on the shore, this place is perfect if you are looking for peace and relaxation. This beach is in one of the most touristic areas of this island, has many restaurants around where they sell the best fresh fish and delicacies from the sea.

What a wonderful capture!


Yes, even here on Baltic we sometimes have so-called SUMMER TIME :) Not for a long though, but happens. Baltic Sea is quite cold all year round and to get it warm enough for swimming is the issue in fact. So we count here some 16-18 degrees of the water already "swimmable". And if temperature comes to 20 or more (rare but still could happen)... that's becomes a heaven :D

Here is the shot of colourful summer sunset at the coast of Baltic sea nearby Klaipeda, Lithuania

Enjoy the scenery!

I took this picture from a village located in the coastal city of lhokseumawe, aceh. this village, is a village whose inhabitants are fishermen.

So no wonder if every day we will get a lot of scenery like this. the most interesting is when the morning or before sunrise. there will be a super beautiful scenery like this, the fishermen who had just returned to sea with the sun with a perfect circle shape adorn the morning scene lhokseumawe townspeople.

while waiting for time to break the fast. we will briefly enjoy the beauty of the Indian Ocean from the foot of geurute mountain lhoong aceh district. Aceh Indonesia. the sunset atmosphere that gives yellow color makes the view so beautiful. until it does not feel time to break the fast has arrived when the sun is all drowned in the western horizon

In the north of Taiwan we find the southern tip of the island. Kenting is one of the places in Taiwan with more beach tradition. Kenting has several sandy beaches, ideal for bathing and sunbathing, easily accessible from the village. In addition to the beaches, Kenting also has a natural park that is well worth visiting. The coast of Kenting is one of the best places to do diving or snorkeling of the whole island.

A part of the Caribbean Sea, from this point that is the dock of the university to these mangroves, there are a lot of marine species that are a marvel for the eyes, this is the entrance to the lagoon of the restinga, a national park located on the largest island of the new state esparta, the water is dark due to the amount of vegetation at the bottom of the water column, the caribbean sea water pirates

This sunset is in Honolulu, Hawaii. A place where the sea is everything for the inhabitants, from here they get their daily food and work for fishermen who work hard every day. There are many boats on these beaches, which also serve as tour guides for walks. This is one of the best sunsets I have ever witnessed, the yellow color that breathes life and joy to all the lucky ones who can see this wonderful landscape.

The picture has been great. I am impressed to see the photo. The beach is very calm. The sky looks very cold. I like this kind of climate . At last thanks for sharing these kinds of photo.

Dark days are changing the night but your spirit never fades. Span by inch you roll up hope as the twilight begins to blush indicate the duty and responsibility of a family leader to give hope to the family who always wait faithfully.

Fiji, pacific Harbour. Great sunset at the beach with a nice meal and and glas of wine. It is a great place for scubadiving and exploring our oceans.
Many sharks, like bull sharks, lemon sharks and nurse sharks.

The "Isla de Margarita" (Venezuela) is surrounded by the Caribbean Sea and all its beaches are truly wonderful. In this opportunity I show you "La Caracola" beach and although it seems very calm it is famous for its big waves that collide with these stones.

This photo is from beach called Anse Georgette on Seychelles, which is a special beach as you have to make the reservation at Constance Lemuria resort just to trespass. Don’t worry you don’t have to book the room there, just let them know that you would like to visit that beach. But still it is quite hard to get the access as number is very limited, but once you are there it is definitely worth the effort!
