The German forest one is creepy.

And yet, I can't help but imagine flying down that road in a nice loud car, a Lamborghini or something suitable. That's the five year old in me, the one who played nothing but NFS:III.

It's Dubai the top of the Burj Khalifa building taken with a wide angle lens. I've seen video footage taken from there that makes your stomach turn!

Tineye says no. Unfortunately. I'd love one too. That's definitely a beautiful picture.

That's the biggest I can find but this is the photographer who took it so you might find bigger with more searching.

Neal you always have the best amazing pics man:tup:! Is that the San Francisco bridge? Because some people dont know that we have an identical one here in Lisbon and it was made by the same guy!

EDIT: Found these panoramic pics! A little detail: Christ on the south side of the Tejo river whatching over Lisbon (on the other side is a small city called Almada)

The antenna went through the tire and into the ground? Is that even possible?

My dad was struck by lightning one morning in his old Subaru. Struck right above the drivers side on the roof. He couldn't really hear that well for a week or two, but he's fine.

Its seems so! I was amazed by that particular thing that ive never heard about!

Damn, that must be an unforgettable experience... to say the least! I bet he stained his seat! Glad he was ok:tup:!

 

[Neal]

Not sure which bridge it is but the photographer is from Portugal so it could be that one.

Just looking at the space shuttle makes me feel warm inside. To think that there are people out there designing and building these machines makes me proud to be a human being.
