How not, the sea which is 3km away from the center of Banda Aceh city and also facing directly with the Indian Ocean offers a million enchanting natural beauty.

@vinceboisgard Australian Monday entry:

The Great Ocean road really is a nice drive, especially when the sun is out. You can do it in a few days to really enjoy the sceneries. These are the famous 12 apostles or what left of it! They are slowly disappearing because of the ocean erosion.

This is another photo of the Pacific Ocean from one of my favorite places, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. For New Years 2017, 15 friends went to PV to celebrate the new year and a friend's birthday. On our last day there, 1/2/2017, we chartered a boat to watch the sunset from the ocean. It was the perfect last day of a wonderful trip.

Great shot. This sounds like a fun trip. I am hoping to make it there for a vacation one day.

These colours are beautiful!

What a stunning image. Thank you for sharing Matt!

I took this shot with my drone at South Phuket Thailand (Andaman Sea, part of Indian Ocean). Thailand is one of most popular countries in Asia. This year there was 35 000 000 visitors and it's 20% more then last year. Food, people and incredible nature this are the reasons why come every year more and more tourists to Thailand and im so happy that i can live here.


Nice shot, I upvote drone photos!

Thank you

No worries. Feel free to check out my drone photos sometime if you are keen. I'll check out yours too and you get a follow for the cool photos. Cheers

Wonderful shot and destination. No surprise with the ever increasing number of tourists.

I still try to propose underwater photography for the Tuesday World Oceans contest ! This week a nice red gorgonia shot around Pasoso Island in Sulawesia. A lot of current kept the sea really clear as you can see. On the gorgonia, you can see a black comantula which is the same family of sea star.

Beautiful this taken photo

Thank you for your interest. You can find more on my blog if you like that.

Ooooo like a watercolor it's beautiful ! I published on my steemblog @afroray tropical flowers if you like terrestrial biodiversity. Very nice pic !

No, thank you !

I'm joking, of course I already had a look and you have really nice macro and good explanations about their bio !!

Your photos of the marine fauna are always amazing

Thank you. Nice to read compliments. You're from Venezuela? I went there 15 years ago. Nice country

Great shot. I love underwater photography. I just need to buy a housing for my camera and give it a go.

Thank you. It's expensive but it's worth to get one. So nice to spend time underwater for photos.

Yep, your under-water images are truly spectacular.

Thank you @czechglobalhosts. Happy to share its with your fans.

Great Ocean Road, Australia

The Great Ocean Road has some of the most spectacular seascapes in this world. This popular view shows the twelve apostles, as the rocks are known. Don't waste your time trying to find all twelve of them in the photo, there are actually just 8 rocks there.


30s; 18mm; f/13.0; ISO 100

I have also posted this photo on my blog.

Ive been wanting to do this drive for years.

I rode my bicycle along the great ocean road, it was amazing!

I think my long distance cycling days are through, might just stick to the car when I go. Is it ok riding on the highway? Did you have a group?

I went by myself, riding on the road was no problem, the cars were not going at a really fast speed

I want to go to there. It looks awesome. Amazing shot.

It's really an awesome place!

Truly awesome shot!

Bigeye Yellow Snappers in the beautiful Carribean Sea. This picture was taken off the coast of Cuba. It is also possible to dive with sharks in Cuba. In fact the divesite 'Jardines de la Reina' is one of the best in the world to dive with Silk Sharks.

Wow, what a wonderful image. Thank you so much for you entry and this incredible photo. Tomas

What camera did you use to make the photo? Is incredible!

That was 'just' taken with a gopro ;) We rented it from the diveshop, I think it was a gopro 3. The colors are so bright because the water was quite shallow.

Sunset sighting from Nightcliff's rocky beach. Between deep blues and warm orange, the sky is just splendid as it happen almost every night in Darwin. This really is a perfect spot to enjoy the best sunset ever!

Location: Darwin, Australia.

I love how you captured the detail of the light reflected in the rocks

It create very light shade or orange within the blue which is very interesting because blue and yellow-orange are two complementary colours.

Wow, the light is amazing!

Isn't it! Darwin really is an amazing place to witness mindblowing sunset :)

Thank you so much for your participation and your continued support of this contest.

Always happy to be there and share photos from my travel :)

Photo below is from coast of Iceland. I see this photo as a mystic one. Long exposure settings make this photo as a drawing. Scenery and mist climbing up the cliffs reminds me of a legendary series Game of Thrones which was also filmed on Iceland.

These waves look amazing!

Excellent shot!

Glad you like it :)

A recent study on the northern great barrier reef found 99% of green sea turtles were being born female. This is most likely the effect of climate change as sex is determined by incubation temperatures. Sadly, this may cause breeding problems with this beautiful species in the future.

I can't explain what this photo made me feel. Whit this shot you remember to us how much is wonderful our world

It’s so good to hear that you feel that way! I think we all need to stop and appreciate just how amazing our world is.

I wonder how the male turtles feel about this :D

Haha, one positive way of looking at it 😉

What a great fella! Excellent image. Thank you so much for that.

Gampong Jawa Beach, Banda Aceh became a tourist attraction visited by residents in the afternoon, we can see directly the activities of fishermen looking for fish (drag trawl). Pull trawl is one way of catching fish in the sea. This activity is done together with fishermen with long net equipment.

Thank you so much for your incredible entry. What an amazing image.

It never ceased my pride to the twilight conqueror who always strives in the beauty of dusk to the darkness of night to dawn. Your fishermen, your soul and your body are muster with dusk twilight, sand beaches, cold night wind for the sake of a glimmer of hope.

Your images of the fisherman are just something else. Pure beauty.

Thank you very much for the appreciation.

Black and white shot of the Atlantic Ocean, lava rocks and cliffs off the Adeje Coast in Southwestern Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain. The black lava rocks are very typical of Tenerife as well as of the entire archipelago as all of the Canary Islands are of volcanic origin.

Nice shot. I am excited because I might get to see the Atlantic Ocean tomorrow!! I have never been to the East Coast of the US and see the ocean, so it should be cool.

Wow, I love the b&w style, fits great with the white waves in contrast to the lava rocks!

This is the Pacific Ocean shot from the coast of Easter Island. The turbulent waves were crashing into the lava rocks with great power. And the colors of the sea on this overcast day looked a bit different, ranging from purple to dark blue and light blue, which was a pretty special sight to me.

I love the color of the waves!


Curonian Spit, Lithuania - untouched corner of the nature with perfect sand dunes. It takes me not so long time, about one hour, to take a small ferry to cross the gulf and then some 3 km walk by foot to get there. And very often this place meets me with stunning colors on sunset, just love to come there time to time and to find some new foreground for next photo :)

Enjoy the scenery!

Nice. I love the colors


The beauty of the sea "Lhoknga" Aceh, Undoubtedly in the eyes of the visitors, Lautan "Lhoknga" has a beautiful beach, beautiful sunset charm and the most in the interest of local and foreign tourists is big and high waves. This is what makes the sea "Lhoknga" is a favorite tourist attraction in Aceh. Beach "Lhoknga" which is about 20 kilometers from the city "Banda aceh" never deserted visitors. If a holiday arrives, the beach is full of local tourists who enjoy the holidays.

The sea that became a favorite place at this time makes us do not want to go everywhere will charm.
How not, Lhoknga beach located west of Sumatra is the only beach that has the potential to attract foreign tourists from various countries, especially surfers to try the world-class sea waves located in Aceh.

A vast sea of clean beach lips for people who like to spend the afternoon to the beach while bathing into the sea and also playing football on the beach when I see people playing footballs on my beach lips with the spirit of directing my smart phone camera to a beach full of people playing football teenagers almost every afternoon playing football at the beach that is at the end of the city banda aceh. Seeing the sunset there will be a very beautiful moment. This photo I took in the village of Pande Banda Aceh.

The spirit and focus of the photography contest should never get bored and I am very excited with the contest held by @czechglobalhosts.

World Oceans, The Red Sea.
Anemonefish or clownfish become very famous, because of the animation film" Finding Nemo".
Because they live in the anemone, they are easy to spot for a scubadiver, but difficult to photograph, because they move continuously in and out the anemone.
They look so funny and have beautiful colors. They always make me laugh under water.
There is so much to see in our oceans.

"Kuala Cut Beach"
Who does not know this one beach, especially for the water sports enthusiasts "Surfing", of course this one tourist attraction to be their main destination, be it local and foreign tourists.
Why, because the waves on this beach is very world class.
yes, the beach facing directly with the Indian Ocean has become one of the most visited tourist attraction each year.
And here, the sunset, became an object that is always presented for the visitors.

Cape Kiwanda

Cape Kiwanda in Pacific City is one of the most beautiful beaches on the Oregon coast. My brother and I visited this area two summers ago and spent the entire evening watching the waves roll in on the rocks below.

Venezuelans call estuaries "mouths", places where a river flows into and meets the sea. This is "The mouth" of the Unare River, which joins the Caribbean Sea, in the Anzoátegui state; The site is known to be a reservoir of birds and is very popular with fishermen.

Lens:Canon EF 35-80 mm f / 1:4-5.6
Location:Peñalver Municipality, Anzoategui, Venezuela

People are looking for catches, which are now the main attraction for people in the Java gampong neighborhood, and many people come to buy the proceeds from people, but here also become a fun sunset spot for the people around.

I feel privileged to have been to Antarctica. Hopefully this photo, taken from in the field, doing fieldwork in the middle of the most remote continent on Earth gets some love from people here! Lots of ocean photos, but the Glaciers and mountains here are not to be missed. Go if you ever get the chance!

Can you see the people working???

Blue ice meets green water in this wonderful scene from my trip to Antarctica. It's so surprising and wonderful how colorful water can be in its different states. From frozen to liquid, it surprises us with wonderful hues.

This doesn't look like it was taken in Antarctica or any ocean.

Yep. Sometimes people don't take time to read and for that they usually get ignored.

Whales, seagulls and dolphins. That is what you can see if you are lucky during the boat trip in Atlantic ocean, only a few miles to Cape Cod. I was so lucky to catch them all in one photo frame.

20180331_182924-01.jpegLocation : Banda Aceh City Aceh Indonesia

Syiah Kuala sky always keeps a color that is not easy to guess. Many photographers like nature around Gampong Syiah Kuala not far from downtown Banda Aceh.

Dusk always gives the most beautiful impression in photography media, I belong to most photographers as daily photography art, because dusk for me implies the true shade and silence

Tierra del Fuego in Patagonia. Beautiful seaside trek by the ocean throughout nice forest with dead trees (some of them). And special type of silence everywhere.
