Edward Burtynsky is a Canadian photographer and artist. His works are housed in over fifty museums worldwide, numerous corporate collections, and books.
Burtynsky's most famous photographs are sweeping views of landscapes altered by industry: mine tailings, quarries, scrap piles. The grand, awe-inspiring beauty of his images is often in tension with the compromised environments they depict.
What is impressive with his works is that he can take a picture of the consequences of industrialization on nature and make it beautiful.

I was really surprised with the way of getting rid of old subway cars in New York.
Look inside the post.

A guy’s mobile phone had some problems in functioning well, so he decided to clean its interior.
Look further to know how it all happened. Yet, I do not recommend repeating this. After this, your phone would hardly work ;)

And if the world that we know was not all the same.
If the things we usually do and find perfectly normal and logical would reverse and these same things would be done WITH us?
Scary, right? ;))

Well, after viewing these pictures, I have double thoughts. Some of them really resembles, others – not very much, only in the way they pose. Anyway, the montages are poorly made, that can be said for sure.

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!

Have you ever thought about how could look a toilet at the ISS?
If not, then take a look. It is a bit spooky ;))

Tsutomu Tosuka is 74. His body constitution could make jealous men half his age.
He was crowned this weekend winner in the senior category of the Japan Masters Bodybuilding Championships 2009. He began practising bodybuilding at 40 and never stopped since. It’s really amazing to see the body you can have at such an elderly age.
Conclusion, you’re never too old and it’s never too late to have a great body!

Nine-year old Rohan Ajit Kokane set a new world record in the limbo skating under the cars. He rolled blindfolded only 8 inches above the ground. However, he said that in the future he would try to roll under more than 3 cars at once. In India, the enthusiasm to this sport is spreading very quickly among children.

It happened in Russia. Though the engine was damaged, it wasn’t a problem to land. But it was impossible to take off, they had to fix the problem right on place.
They did not even repair the engine, they put a brand new one from Air France.
The difficult part was to work outside and the weather was pretty cold.
You’ll see pics of the replacement and pics of the damaged engine inside the post.

This is the female penitentiary Santa Martha Acatitla in Mexico D.F.
About 50 children live together with their imprisoned mothers. Normally, the children are taken away when they turn 6. Sometimes the penitentiary reminds a school with children running around. But when children are not present, some serious clashes can appear between inmates.
From one hand, it is a good thing that children stay with their mothers, it helps them to get to know them but from the other hand, prison is not a place for a child and as for me, 6 years of life is too long for a baby.

Yu Zhenhuan is the most hairy man in the world.
Now he wants to remove an important part of the hair from his body. But each hair will have to be burnt with laser and the procedure is quite painful.
But it’s ok as long as his wife is by his side and helping him to get through it :) And judging by the photographs, they are a very happy couple.

Here’s Queen Elizabeth. It seems that she’s been here forever, ‘cause since my very young age, I heard of her, read news, learned history with her in it ))
And presidents change so quickly that once they get into history books there’s already another one in the office ;)
So, here’s a set of pictures with Queen Elizabeth and 11 presidents.
Queen Elizabeth with George W. Bush
