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.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Australian Monday week #36 - winner announcement!

@jayclar30 Australian Monday entry:

This is Natural Bridge but is sometimes called Natural Arch. It is a stunning waterfall found in Springbrook National Park in Queensland, Australia. I was blessed the day we visited, we had been there for a little while and I had already taken a heap of photos but then the sun found an area through the trees to shine through making my photos all the better. The reflection from the sun on the water was reflecting up onto the roof of the cave highlighting it's fabulous textures and colours.

This is a photo I took of the Pacific Ocean taken from the Hermosa Pier on Christmas Day 2017. We had a wonderfully warm Christmas here so I decided to take a late afternoon drive down to the beach to watch the sunset. Definitely a great way to end the day!

I still goes on with proposals of underwater photography. I don't know doing something else ! On this photography, everybody will see the wonderful "crinoïds" on the foreground, but who will see the 3 sharks...?

crinoide61.jpg
Crinoids and... sharks!

This is beautiful. I am loving all of the colors.

Tremendous, once again! Yep, they are all the way up there, easy to miss without your mention....

Yes, you found its !! Next time I will post a shark portrait, it will be easier !

Watercolour

On a rainy day, I was sitting on the beach, looking toward the horizon to these dark clouds pouring rain on the ocean. Look at these colours, this is what happen when water mixes with water!

Aussi bizarre que ça paraisse, les orages avait souvient au large à Darwin.

A blanket made out of a sky. Tremendous image. Thanks for that.

Sunrise at Bruny Island, Tasmania

Bruny Island is one of the best spots to get amazing views of the Tasman Sea: The two islands North Bruny and South Bruny are connected by a long strip of sand, the so-called neck. I camped right next to this long beach and enjoyed the beautiful golden hour light from both sides of the beach.


1/500s; 30mm; f/8.0; ISO 100

I have also posted this photo on my blog.

Sunset at its best. Thank you so much for sharing it with all of us. Tomas


Next frame from "Endangered Species" series. Pretty long exposure shot of a beautiful sunset at the Baltic Sea coast, nearby the gates to the port of Klaipeda. Pretty stormy skies, but still with touch of colors from the dawning sun at the horizon. A long piece of wood as a perfect foreground leading the eye to the endless sea

Enjoy the scenery!

The Lhoknga Aceh Sea overlooks the Indian Ocean. The beauty of Lhoknga beach is unquestionable. Lhoknga beach resort destination never deserted visitors because of its strategic location and very close to the highway. Lhoknga Beach is located about 20 kilometers from the city center "Banda Aceh" The beauty of the sunset on this beach will make the eyes of visitors fascinated by its beauty.

Indah brother ,tembakan yang bagus

Those colors are insane! Fantastic image.

An old man is fishing in the coastal area of Leupung, Aceh Besar. although he is old but his zeal for sustenance does not fade. the fish catch is taken home for his family and some are sold to the locals.

Awesome

Thank you my bro.

What a great entry. Kindly stay tuned for the winner announcement coming later on today. Tomas

thank you for this amazing photo contest, I hope to be the best in this contest @czechglobalhosts

Ulee lheu Beach Banda Aceh is now home to WindSurfing to practice and prepare for local and national events. Playing WindSurfing at dusk almost drowned in the west end has its own charm and challenge for athletes. While playing WindSurfing the athletes can also enjoy the beauty of the sunset which is the power of the divine.

What a great place and time for some windsurfing, truly tremendous.

We sailed the Whitsunday Islands on a catamaran and of course went snorkeling. Because of the deadly box jellyfish we had to wear those full bodysuits. But instead of meeting this deadly creature we met a friendly turtle. this is my girlfriend synchronized swimming with her. It was for both of us the first time we swam with a wild turtle and it was an amazing experience! If you want to see more of the Whitsunday Islands you can watch our video on here :)

What a great swim that must have been.

Tuesday 📷 World Ocean: Costa de Prata

519.png

I guess this was something near heaven. Costa de Prata is a hidden coast of Atlantic ocean in Portugal. This is my friend Ece. She is really tall and photogenic, so I couldn't help taking her picture. This place is not very populer and tourist haven't explore yet. It’s between Porto and Lisbon. The main thing here is fishing. And the sea food is amazing! We had to rent a car to have a ride there and also to continue through the seaside. But the local people were so humble and everything was really cheap when you compare to other sides of Portugal.

Hope to see there again and hope you like the picture!

at dusk. I sat on the beach to wait for the arrival of a beautiful sunset. the waves never stop, go on and on. so was the afternoon breeze. with a silence far from the urban whisper. this is a beautiful sunset at ParoCut Lhoong Aceh Besar Aceh Indonesia

This is on the island of Coche, Venezuela. Where I was practicing diving and I found one of the biggest attractions of coral reefs is, without any doubt, its spectacular and colorful fauna. Among the most famous fauna of the tropical seas is the clown fish, iconic animal of coral reefs and probably one of the most famous animals in the world thanks to the recent animated films. The Caribbean Sea always has beautiful species

I have two of those cute clownies in my fish tank at home ;)

Excellent, they are beautiful fish :D

This photo is on the Isla de Margarita, Venezuela, on a beach called "Yaque". This beach is very famous for the water sports that it offers, since it is a beach without waves, you can do different activities such as windsurfing which consists of in sliding on the water there is a board that carries a candle, an activity for anyone who has it and very fun.



Again, I try to give one Photo, pictures are in one of the Beach in my country (Aceh). This Beach is Beach 'ule lhee' this Beach if afternoon very much visited by visitors, the reason they only one, want to see the Sunset...

the engine boat of the people of Aceh often call it by the name 'bot tep tep' this machine boat is one of the main transportation for fishermen to find fish or catch fish by throwing the net.

One of the main activities is fishing and the best-known fishing village is in Yehliu, Taipei, where fishing is a way of earning a living. The sea is a place of work for fishermen, and for those who do not consider it is a place of recreation. Here you get the best sunsets on its beaches, where every night dazzles us with bright colors that are very attractive both for people who live here and for tourists

World oceans

At the sandy bottoms of Lembeh Straight, Indonesia, you can find the mimic octopus.
The name for the mimic octopus comes from the fact that they often copy the behaviors of other types of animals in the water. They do this in order to trick predators into leaving them alone. Beautiful and intelligent animal.
There is so much to sea in the ocean

Sea of simex sand that existed by the highway banda aceh calang. Simex sand sea has a very wide coral reefs along the beach in the circumference with coral plants. The coral reefs in the lhoknga include coral plants that are protected. I take this photo at sunset.

This place is a part of the island of aruba, it is a Dutch colony on Venezuelan coasts, an important tourist destination for the Caribbean, in this photo apart from observing the beautiful blue of the sea, it is a part where food is thrown to attract the sharks on this side of the island and away from the tourist beaches where they can scare visitors, this effort is made by hotels and government.

This magnificent beach is on the Isla de Coiba in Panama. In the past this island was used as a prison for heavy criminals. Today the National Park is a declared world heritage site by UNESCO, because of its rich marine and terrestrial biodiversity.
