The amazing and cool photo thread

[Wiegert]

Such a majestic creature, that huge-ass Flying Fox. Not at all terrifying.

Neal - is that the eclipse from yesterday?

I don't know about the other ones, but the fourth pic wasn't from yesterday, seeing as I posted it a while back. They're all beautiful shots though.

The fire demon cometh?

 

[Beerz]

Fire demon is pretty cool.

Though the lens that took that pic suffers from severe CA's. (yeah, I'm like that)


That giant bat is some scary stuff. Never knew those existed.

I was staring at the eclipse through my grandfather's old welding mask. It worked surprisingly well... I wish I could have gotten a view like this though.

 

[Ibonibo]

Nice to see it's under military guard.

That very much,... scary (reminded me of jeepers creepers )

Nice eclipse shots 👍

 

[Bopop4]

Love the airplane through the eclipse. 👍

Dunno, they're all from new posts on other sites but....

...I guess at least some are from other eclipses.

Also the big ass bat needs to be killed...with fire...sorry hippies.

All the solar eclipse pics are awesome 👍

Urgent message, WWI.

 

[Beerz]

^^ Those first two are beautiful photos, basically perfect from a technical viewpoint.

Last one is a damn fine moment caught, almost looks staged. 👍

 

[Bopop4]

The first helicoptor one is awesome.

^ You just had to masculinitize the thread again didn't you?

Amazing shot 👍 That tank looks very familiar to me, I'm guessing it's a Merkava?

Yup, Merkava IIID by the looks of it.

Can someone explain some more about the bed?

 

[axletramp]

Magnets or superconductors I'm guessing.

edit: Of course, never rule out poltergeists.

 

[Solo]

Would the cables being under high tension not also cause it to be suspended? it does seem strange to have the large box under it though if that was the case. Looks pretty uncomfortable though either way

Edit: didn't realise that the cables went into the base box not the walls. Magnets it is.

 

[DustDriver]

Must be magnetic if it isn't a visual trick. Only use for the cables is to hold it in place.
If it was only the cables, the top plank would lay flat on the bottem one, as the distance in that position is the minimum length needed.

 

[axletramp]

It's full of helium and butterflies!

Awesome 👍

 

[Danoff]

That looks unbelievably uncomfortable.

 

[PeterJB]

Yeah but if you lie on it too hard and it hits the board underneath, that ain't gonna be good.

 

[ildd]

Awesome 👍

Yeah but if you lie on it too hard and it hits the board underneath, that ain't gonna be good.

I figured the wooden board is still a wooden board so the fact that it's floating would make no difference whatsoever. It'd be like sleeping on a floor.

That's gotta be one of the coolest collection of photos I've ever seen. It looks like they could be from just a couple years ago... damn. 👍
