Multi-colored planet Mars
Thanks to the camera Hirise we can see new photos krassnoy planet.
HiRISE, a high-resolution camera mounted on board the Mars research satellite Orbiter (MRO). This spacecraft is now for one terrestrial day makes about 13 revolutions around Mars. 8 November 2006, scientists formally announced the beginning of the first research stage (main stage of the mission surveying). This phase lasted for two Earth years. Detailed research phase will continue for as long as the spacecraft and the camera is not gone.

Often all used peach pits, peach as synonymous with saving in Chinese culture. Given that each stone is unique, so cutting out complex shapes requires considerable years of training and patience!

Painting with a very small Circuits
Incredibly detailed picture drawn by a pencil, I think the artist really tried …
Imagine yourself draws a mechanical pencil on a huge sheet of white paper now 10 hours a day, seven days a week and so on throughout the entire ten months. Many would have surrendered in the first few days but can say with confidence that Joe Fenton – not a majority. He worked in that mode, and set up his incredibly detailed picture, which can only marvel at and remember the engravings from old books, which are likely to see an artist.
Mentone aptly named my project alone. It is true, doing such fine work will perforce have to be a long time just to yourself.

Great Banyan – Live maze
The Great banyan a tree with the world’s largest area of the crown. Located in the Indian Botanic cadu.
Tree age is estimated at 200-250 years. After the lightning strike occurred in 1925 splitting the main stem, so that the barrel had to be cut. After that, the banyan was considered a clonal colony, not a single tree, as before. Around a banyan laid track length of 330 meters, but the tree continues to grow beyond it. Under such a tree can easily hide more than two thousand people at once.

Mysterious and incredible Mars
Outstanding digital photo processing methods Dutchman Kees Venebosa been demonstrated in National Geographic and NASA site. Processing of the images he made with the help of landscape modeling Terragen. He has worked with various versions of this program since 1999.
Most of the photographs were obtained by digital simulation of heights on images from various NASA satellites, such as Mars Global Surveyor. He made a lot of pictures for National Geographic, not only Mars but also the good old Earth and other planets in the solar system and extrasolar planets of other systems. Here is the collection of his most beautiful and fantastic images of Mars.

Amazing And Unusual Weather Phenomena
The science of weather is a fascinating one; but even more so are the flukes and irregularities that can occur within our world. This is a list of 20 of the most amazing and unusual of those anomalies.
A rainbow is caused by the Sun shining on moisture droplets, most commonly in a post-rain atmosphere. A moon bow is much rarer, only seen at night when the moon is low and full to almost full. One popular place to see moon bows is at Cumberland Falls in Kentucky, as pictured above.

All Beautiful HDR Pictures
“In computer graphics and photography, high dynamic range imaging (HDRI) is a set of techniques that allows a greater dynamic range of exposures (the range of values between light and dark areas) than normal digital imaging techniques. The intention of HDRI is to accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from direct sunlight to shadows.”
What I’ve read on some foruns is that a program called Photomatix does the job… Does anybody have already used it? I’m looking forward to it. Well… either way, if I don’t get to use it, I’ll probably find out how to simulate that effect on Photoshop. All this pictures are from a Flickr HDR Group.

Icy Photos
Freezing rain sounds innocent enough, until it becomes a layer of ice, enveloping every single thing in a heavy, unwelcome embrace.
Ice storms are able to put the life of an entire state on hold, as power distribution is disrupted and often not restored for a couple of weeks. You are left with nothing much to do, other than to admire the cold beauty of ice “kingdom” around you. You turn into a truly “captive audience”.
A week without any power
We all remember the 1998 ice storm in Quebec. Here are some pictures of this devastating event. Over fifty

Sculptures by Adam Beane
Adam Beane is quite unique sculptor. Since beginning sculpting in 2002 he is known for dynamic compositions, action poses, nuanced drapery work and his ability to capture likenesses with expressions. For the work he uses CX5, a tremendously versatile material he developed which handles like clay when warm but is hard as plastic when cool. In this collection you will find mini copies of famous people and will be suprised how unbelievable realistic they look. Many of them were made for toys companies and may be you could find works of Adam Beane in supermarkets.

Let’s take a look at some amazing photos capturing Mother Nature at her worst — which just happens to occasionally also be at her best.

Hyper-Realist Still Life Paintings by Roberto Bernardi
Roberto Bernardi was born in Todi in 1974. His first works date from the mid eighties, and whilst a young student he dedicated himself to the study of Renaissance painting and pictorial technique, which later proved to be extremely important in the development of his personal creativity. In 1993 he moved to Rome, where he worked as a restorer in the church of San Fransesco a Ripa. After this experience, he dedicated himself full time to the creation of his own hyper-realist works.
I dream of you by Luis Beltrán
“I dream of you” is an art project by Luis Beltrán that takes as its starting point the world of dreams and leads us through scenes that are among the thin line of reality and imagination in search of the emotions that guide our lives. An attempt to wake up for a moment, our lethargy, to revive emotions without knowing why, one day we feel, to find within ourselves the best of us and everything that ever made us dream. Dedicated to those who daydream, who believe that without illusion there is no hope, who live in fantasy worlds and do not want to wake up.
“Those who dream by day are aware of many things which escape those who dream only by night.”
~Edgar Allan Poe
