@vinceboisgard Australian Monday entry:

Standing on the top of Summer's cliff I watch the night lights shining over the bay. A few clouds are floating in the sky and the stars are a little shy tonight. Still the view is just amazing and the place so peaceful!

@vinceboisgard European Thursday entry:

South of France hides fantastic treasures such as this Roman aqueduct that is still standing and in very good shape. It is named "Le pont du gard" and really is something to see! It is incredible to see how good and beautiful were the construction centuries ago.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - North American Friday week #68 - winner announcement!

@ladybug146 North American Friday entry:

A place so beautiful, it used to be featured on our old $20 bills, Moraine Lake, Alberta attract loads of tourists each summer. The road to this remote lake is only open in the summer months due to dangerous conditions in the winter. Most of my travels to busy areas are done in the winter to avoid the crowds meaning, I don't get to see it often. After 10 years I finally went for my first visit last summer.

A panoramic view of the coast at Antofagasta at Northern Chile. This city is associated with the mining industry of Chile. At the left of the image there is the hill called Cerro Moreno. In spite of being a very dry and arid region during many days the sky is cloudy (as the day when this poto was taken) due to the humidity that comes from the sea.

Thank you so much for your submission. Stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today.

Visiting Machu Picchu "The Lost City of the Incas" has been on my bucket list for years and that day felt like a dream. There is so much beauty here and still it hasn´t all been uncovered. So the history of Machu Picchu is still a big mystery.

Same here but I still have to realize that. Thank you!

View on the Tatacoa Desert in Colombia. Actually, it's not a desert, but dry rain forest. Used to be wetter with thousands of colourful flowers and trees, but has been gradually transforming into a desert. I took this shot with my mobile.

Looks very interesting, thank you for your entry.

Roofs of Potosi, Bolivia

Located at an altitude of over 4000m, Potosi is a city with a fascinating history: Thanks to the giant silver mine in Cerro Rico, the mountain in the background, Potosi became the richest city in the world in the 16th century. These times are over, but many impressive churches built by the Spanish remain.

Sunset in my Town

Life is an instant that passes and does not return, which begins with a fresh dawn; and like a serene sunset, it goes away. Appreciate the beauty of a sunset, is to feel the beauty that gives us mother nature and the small moments that gives us life, next to the beautiful scenery of the majestic Orinoco River, Bolivar Venezuela.

This photograph is from "Puerto Constanza" on the Island of Margarita - Venezuela. Place that has been characterized by contemplating the sea in fullness and waiting for the magic hour. It is usually visited by many tourists, it is a fairly large and appropriate place to share.

Thank you for your submission. Have a good one.

Sunset at Playa Lido. Lecheria. Venezuela

Good day community, and happy year. First participation in 2019, I bring a view of the beach "manzanillo" one of the beaches north of the island of Margarita, Nueva Esparta Venezuela. This beach on the island of the Caribbean a few meters from the shore is deep. It shows in the color of the water, that beautiful blue with cold waters. A place to relax

Yep, what a great place to relax. Happy NY to you and your family as well.
