Yesterday morning, the inhabitants of Sydney could observe such a fantastic picture.
A powerful sandstorm struck Queensland and New South Wales in eastern Australia. This sandstorm is the strongest since 1940.
Sandy cloud was the densest in the entire history of observations of such phenomena.
Very beautiful and unusual photographs. Enjoy!

In order to collect the letters of this alphabet, the photographer Kjell Sandved spent many years.
The fact is that all these letters were photographed on the wings of butterflies.
This is very beautiful and you should definitely see it ;)

In fact, the Kopp-Etchells effect is a new name.
It was named after two soldiers who died in Afghanistan in July 2009. The Kopp-Etchells effect is a result of dust striking helicopter blades as they take off or land at night, causing a bright 'halo' effect around the spinning rotor disk.
So, if it happens at night, you can watch an amazing show.
Take a look at pictures.

This sandwich artwork is from the series creative culinary masterpieces.
But these sandwiches are the best ever, especially for children. It is even a pity to eat them…)

This amazing artwork is done by San Francisco artist Andres Amador.
He usually patiently waits for a full or new moon to be sure that low tides would prepare for him a perfect “canvas” to do his work.
Sadly enough, but within several hours these masterpieces are wiped out by the ocean…

Huacachina is a small lost paradise located in the desert of the Ica region, in south-western Peru. There are only 115 inhabitants (1999).
The particularity of this village is that it has been built around a small natural lake in the desert called the "Oasis of America.”
The two main activities in addition to swimming are sandboarding and taking dune buggy rides on sand dunes that stretch several hundred feet high.
Going on vacations in an oasis is rather cool and frankly, I would be glad to spend one week or two over there this summer!

That’s how one of the Dutch supermarkets looks. Its shelves are empty.
No, no, it has nothing to do with the crisis. Last weekend, there was an electric blackout when the store was closed and all the fridges were out. When the employees came at work on Monday, well, you can imagine that the product were fit for the trashcan.
More after the jump.

One parking lot in Kiev was flooded during the night.
Water has brought a lot of sand and, therefore, in the morning, few people were able to take their cars. They had to dig them out first ...

This is the amount of sand which is needed for a sand-watch to work 87 years in a raw.
It made me sad actually. There’s little sand for 87 years, in my opinion.
Clearly, life is too short…
