Our winners today 🍍

🥇 A trip to Athens: The vibrating cradle of the modern world by @koenau

"Athens, which is preceded by the prejudice of being a dirty, noisy and hectic city, is full of splendid sights that are all waiting to be visited and explored. So why always go to London, Paris or Rome? Accommodation is still affordable here, even in the city center, with a touch of the exotic hanging over everything, because the Greek letters are as foreign to most visitors as Egyptian hieroglyphics."

🥈 Tales of the Urban Explorer: Smudges by @slobberchops

"Once again I was wrong and on showing some interest to @ anidiotexplores who had already been, I was told…. "You need to climb a 7-foot wall to get in there", it's not that hard. Whoa, hang on a minute. 7 feet is not so easy for me anymore. Hauling your body up is harder than it looks. Don’t assume you can still do it, because you could at 14 years old. It doesn’t work that way."

🥉 A Weekend on the Marina: Port Owen #seaphotographycontest by @zo3d

"As we reached the Berg River, on which Port Owen is found, we happened to be in time to view the birds relocating from their nighttime roosts upriver, back towards the beach at the river mouth about a kilometre down river. It was quite a sight to behold as thousands of birds just kept flying by in their flocks."
