Hello fellow Steemians!
Welcome to my 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - European Thursday - where the winner of the weekly round will be able to participate for the total of 200 SBD!
Today, you can participate by submitting your personal pictures from your travels to the continent of Europe.
See the winner of the last week´s European Thursday 
This place is called The Emerald Lake and it was formed due to the massive exploitation of basalt in that area. Or how I like calling it - the beautiful disaster. Because I consider it a rare thing after such activities to be born this beauty. And its colour is usually greener and cleaner, but when I visited it was during the storm and that made it look a little bit different than usual. The Emerald Lake, Racoș, Romania.
Your entries need to be submitted by 8 AM Central European Time in order to be considered for the challenge with a description of approximately 30 to 50 words. Only use of personal images will be accepted and only one picture can be submitted for a daily photo challenge. Ten winning photos will receive a bigger upvote from me and ten runners-up will get a smaller one.
Chosen from the ten winning entries, the absolute winner of the day will receive extended publicity in my post tomorrow morning. I will also visit his/her blog to upvote one of the most recent posts. The winning picture of the daily challenge will then automatically enter other rounds with the absolute winner gaining approximately 200 SBD in total.
Please see the winners of the previous contests of the week and give them your support if you like their images to be the one winning the weekly price and entering the other stages of the 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge. You can vote for them by upvoting their winner announcement posts below:

Good morning Guilin. Guilin and the surrounding area was the highlight of our china vacation. The landscape is so unique with the hills all over the place and the rivers running through. The morning hike was steep but short and this view was the perfect prize:)
7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge – Australian Monday week #93 – winner announcement!
It's quite a challenge to choose one picture from a six weeks New Zealand roadtrip, but I believe this one captures the feeling of freedom and the beauty of nature at it's best. This shot was taken at the top of Ben Ohau at 1500 meters elevation after a challenging hike in 28 degrees Celcius. The reward was amazing as you can see! (Yes, the lakes in New Zealand really are that blue).
Beautiful morning on Playa el Bollulo, Tenerife, Canary Islands. This beach with pitch black volcanic sand is one of the most beautiful on the island. I was mesmerized with the contrast of sand and the water rolling back and creating the white foamy lines. I have spent some time just looking at this natural beauty and noticed the amazing subtle reflection in the middle ground. All I needed is a subject and it was easy to find because there are several rock formations on the beach. I took several shots to find the right balance in all this permanent changing and combined several images (foreground with the leading lines, middle ground with reflection and subject with rock and crashing waves).

Electrification on Mars. Picture like from a sci-fi cartoon... But in reality shot from the moving bus early morning on the way from Hurghada to Luxor, Egypt to reach our cruise up the Nile ship. The quality is not so sharp, but really nice overall effect and some strange colors caused by polarized bus window. Enjoy the scenery :)
