The mind-blowing Mount Roraima

Mount Roraima is the highest of the Pakaraima mountain chain in South America and one of the world’s most extraordinary natural geological formations. The 31 square kilometer summit area of Mount Roraima is defined by 400 meter tall cliffs on all sides and includes the borders of Brazil, Venezuela, and Guyana.

The tabletop mountains of the Pakaraima’s are considered some of the oldest geological formations on Earth, dating back to over two billion years ago. The result is the staggering landscape of Mount Rariama.

Kaindi je idilično planinsko jezero koje se nalazi u kazahstanskom dijelu Tian Shan planine, u blizini najvećeg grada u zemlji, Almaty. Jezero je nastalo nakon potresa 1911. godine koji je izazvao veliki veliki odron, i pri tome stvorio prirodnu branu. Kiša je zatim ispunila dolinu i stvorila prekrasno tirkizno jezero.

Jezero je poznato po svojoj ljepoti, ali najviše po podvodnoj šumi. Iznad vode, potopljeno drveće izgleda kao jarboli izgubljenih brodova, a ispod površine, na njima su još uijek ostale grane koje istovremeno stvaraju očaravajući prizor. Voda u jezeru je uvijek hladna, zbog čega su grane ostale na stablima čak 100 godina nakon potopa.

Lake Hillier is an amazing lake on Middle Island of Recherche Archipelago in Western Australia. The most notable feature of this lake is its pink color. The island provides visitors with one of the most amazing view of the world's natural wonder. From above the lake appears a solid bubble gum pink, but from the shoreline it looks more like a clear pink hue is in the water. It is such a significant feature of the archipelago that air passengers often take note of it.

Why would a cloud appear to be different colors? A relatively rare phenomenon known as iridescent clouds can show unusual colors vividly or a whole spectrum of colors simultaneously. These clouds are formed of small water droplets of nearly uniform size. When the Sun is in the right position and mostly hidden by thick clouds, these thinner clouds significantly diffract sunlight in a nearly coherent manner, with different colors being deflected by different amounts. Therefore, different colors will come to the observer from slightly different directions. Many clouds start with uniform regions that could show iridescence but quickly become too thick, too mixed, or too far from the Sun to exhibit striking colors. The above iridescent cloud was photographed in 2009 from the Himalayan Mountains in Nepal, behind the 6,600-meter peak named Thamserku.

Astronauts aboard the International Space Station caught a lucky glimpse of the start of this eruption of Sarychev Volcano in the Kuril Islands, northeast of Japan, on June 12, 2009. This was the volcano’s first eruption in 30 years.

The smooth white cloud, known as a pileus cloud, topping the eruption column may be made of water condensation caused by rising and cooling of the air above. In contrast, a dark gray cloud of ash near the ground is probably an avalanche of hot ash and rock known as a pyroclastic flow.

This photo sparked a debate among scientists about what caused the hole in the clouds above the eruption.
Three possible options came up:

• It could have nothing to do with the eruption and simply be caused by the contrast in temperatures between the ocean and the island

• A shockwave from the eruption could have blown a hole in the cloud deck.

• As the plume rose, air flowed downward along the sides and became warmer and evaporated the clouds.

Nije li fascinantno kako se priroda ponavlja kod različitih fenomena..? Još me je kao djevojčicu fascinirala forma koja dolazi nakon eksplozije atomske bombe. Nije mi bilo jasno kako je ta gljiva / meduza izrasla tako gorostasna.

Nije stablo.



Abstract Aerial Shots from Iceland Pictured: Iceland, River Hvita with their strange coloured surfaces and unusual landscapes, these stunning photographs look like they were taken on an alien planet.

The incredible shots were actually captured aboard a Cessna light aircraft flying over Iceland. The beautiful images reveal some of the country's most incredible scenery, ranging from explosive volcanoes to colossal mountains.

Ovo je od 24. kolovoza objavljena fotka.. Munje su opkolile Kamen mali



u zelji da Vam priblizim atmosferu od sinoc napravio sam kompozit fotografiju koja se sastoji od 6 ekspozicija od koje je svaka bila duga 30 sekundi...znaci-sve su ove munje udarie unutar tri minute....eto-tolika je frekvencija udara munja bila..nesto sto nikad do sada nisam vidio....

Sjećate se, krajem 1990. godine sve je mirisalo na rat. Godinu dana kasnije rat je i počeo. Potrajao je gotovo punih pet godina, a 15 godina iza rata, negdje tamo 2010. godine, mogli ste se okrenuti oko sebe i vidjeti da smo izgubili 20 godina u kojima prosperiteta gotovo da nije ni bilo. U istih tih 20 godina, dakle od 1990. do 2010. godine, na drugom kraju planete stvari su se itekako mijenjale. Vjerojatno najbolji primjer što se u može napraviti u istom periodu u kojem se ovdje nije napravilo gotovo pa ništa, dolazi iz zemlje koja je već godinama najbrže rastuća ekonomija svijeta, točnije iz kineskog Šangaja.



Kad iz grada od 20 milijuna ljudi, koji funkcionira po špagi (barem onoliko koliko smo mi vidjeli) dođeš u zemlju od 4,5 milijuna ljudi, a u kojoj ne znaš tko pije tko plaća, jedino što želiš je otići. Na novo putovanje …
