The result of dropping glowsticks down a waterfall + long exposure

More from the photographer can be found here. And if the website is down it's because reddit broke it lol

My favorite shot of one.

I'd classify this as cool. It's a PS3 hooked up an 11,520 square foot screen in a football stadium. Legit.

That's at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium in Arlington. It's surprising how often pictures of people playing games on the screen come out, though this is the first PS3 one I've seen.

Amazed and a little awed by his technique and the realism, especially since I own many of the pond fish that he paints.

Not sure if it's funny or cool enough, please don't flame me

If you can't say it on the forums without it being ****, then you can't have it in a picture.

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

Sorry, didn't read the whole text on the picture and didn't thought that the words on it break the AUP

River flowing through volcanic ash in Iceland

Also, planes.

The shadow of an Avro Vulcan bomber is cast above the Libyan desert as it flies over what the photographer believes to be the wreckage of the infamous Lady Be Good. Based on photos I've seen of the Lady Be Good's wreck, this looks like the wreck of a different B-24. However, as more people went to the crash site to salvage/clear it, the Lady Be Good may have been broken up more than it was originally, so depending on when this photo was taken, it could show the plane exactly as it was when it crashed and before they tried to remove it.

Either way, cool photo of the past and present [at the time].

Well, Storm Thorgerson has died.

Rather than post up a thread in the 'Strip, and get a few RIP's and Condolences, I thought I'd just leave this here.

...right?

If its not, then it's mental.

Would say it's fake, I think I see a pattern in the shadows

 

[terminator363]

I call shenanigans, how come the light coloured birds are on the outside/edges?

 

[CodeRedR51]
