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

I got the chance to go on a safari in Tanzania. We were driving along and suddenly a herd of wild African Elephants came towards us. One of the little ones got a bit itchy I suppose, and came to start rubbing on the log in front of our vehicle. Looks like he's posing for the camera!

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Asian Sunday week #18 – winner announcement!

@vinceboisgard Asian Sunday entry:

The majestic Taj-Mahal made of white marble. Build for a princess and unfortunately used as a tomb where she sleeps for ever. The roof is made of Star Diopside Gems that shine like stars when the moon is full. This is a magnificent place to see and visit.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #18 – winner announcement!

@mibreit-photo Australian Monday entry:

Here's something from famous Milford Sound for you. I travelled New Zealand's South Island back a few years ago and at first I was a bit sceptical as to, if this location could live up to all the hype around it. But it didn't dissapoint. Milford Sound is one of the most spectacular locations I have ever visited. The drive there alone was already worth the visit. Then I even got lucky with this sunset.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Tuesday of Antarctica and world´s oceans week #18 – winner announcement!

@easycome Tuesday of Antarctica and world´s oceans entry:

Every year, like for 3 years, I draw lots with my girlfriend to see which place to visit in September/October, it's like our vacation trip. But occasionally we do getaways, in Europe to do it with low-cost companies is very economic and easy, which if it is true that I never thought that Iceland was a country that gave so much of itself. Has everything, and very freezing too! From now on, in order to give more truthfulness to the photos, I will tell you the parameters used when taking the picture, so that there are less confusions.So... The Parameters used were: 14mm | f/16 | 15s | ISO 100
Camera: Fujifilm X-E2

As I am from Asian region and mainly from Indian. I just love Taj, though I have a lot of differences with the person who built it but from the construction point of view, it is just a masterpiece.
From an Urdu/Hindi ad I remember they used to say " Wah Taj" means woah Taj.

用心做自己喜欢的事情 支持!!!

Wow.....really nice view..... Such love for photography

Nice post.I respect you very much because you contribute to steemit.I will do activities like you.I would like to extend the steemit.

This is a very nice collection of pictures. Hard work and dedication to capture just the right shot, angle, light and if you are trying to capture a moving animal or thing trying to get that to cooperate as well. It is a difficult task at times to get the perfect shot, but if you are persistent it will pay off and it will become second nature to capture wonderful pictures. Thanks for sharing these photos everyone.

Wow... amazing photography, i like this photo.nice post and thanks lot for sharing these really amazing picture.@czechglobalhosts
