That site is truly the weirdest collection of photos. How many sex workers does the world have and why do they all seem to be on street view. Also the Rod Stewert fan club made me chuckle.
 
^ wow!

Tinted orange by the morning sun, a soaring dune is the backdrop for the hulks of camel thorn trees in Namib-Naukluft Park.

Taken two months ago over Jökulsárlón, the largest glacial lake in Iceland. The photographer combined six exposures to capture not only two green auroral rings, but their reflections off the serene lake. Visible in the distant background sky is the band of our Milky Way Galaxy, the Pleiades open clusters of stars, and the Andromeda galaxy. A powerful coronal mass ejection from the Sun caused auroras to be seen as far south as Wisconsin, USA. As the Sun progresses toward solar maximum in the next few years, many more spectacular images of aurora are expected.

Here's some other images of Baffin Island:

Very cool Wiegert. Mt Thor definitely has a Half Dome vibe about it. Those other images show it's nothing like Yosemite though.
