Now go blow some crap up

If you live in a place where snowy and icy winters are the norm, you know the dangers of falling through the ice. And this guide is especially pertinent for those areas of the country where freezing weather only visits sporadically. When frigid temps descend for a short time upon a location that’s not used to seeing them, people, especially children, are apt to go out exploring their neighborhood ponds and reservoirs.

The blue and white area is the dry river bed of the Tsauchab. Black dots of vegetation are concentrated close to the river’s main route, while salt deposits appear bright white. Running through the river valley, a road connects Sossusvlei to the Sesriem settlement. At the road’s 45th kilometre, seen at the lower-central part of the image, a white path shoots off and ends at a circular parking area at the base of a dune. This is Dune 45, a popular tourist stop on the way to and from Sossusvlei. In this image, there appears to be some shadow on the western side. From this we can deduce that the image was acquired during the late morning.

Use of Steps, stage and broken dishes describes all the meaning and thought behind it.

Photographer Kilian Schönberger climbed the Alps late at night to capture one of the mountain range’s strangest segments, alien-like columns found in South Tyrol, an autonomous province in Northern Italy. His series Otherworld showcases the so-called “earth pyramids” in a hazy dawn light, strange creations that appear like stalagmites freed from their underground caves. The structures are created by erosion, rising from clay soil left behind by glaciers from the last Ice Age. Each features a large boulder resting on top which protects the soil below.

The Baikal Lake is an ancient rift lake located on the Mongolian Border. It is said to be the deepest freshwater lake in the world, and freezes during the winter.

“Hundreds of old cypresses guard the perimeter of Lake Camécuaro and its turquoise-colored, crystal clear water,” Javier Eduardo Alvarez writes of this photo he made of the small Mexican lake, popular for its picturesque beauty. “This place is magical.”

Known as the Garden of Eden in the desert, the Havasupai Reservation is not only home to the Grand Canyon area's indigenous Native American tribe, but it is home to the reservations crowning glory - the Havasu Falls. As one of the most famous and beautiful waterfalls in the world, the waterfall attracts almost as much interest as the rim of the Grand Canyon. Helicopter and horse tours to the village of Havasupai are all popular and easy ways to visit. However, the real hikers will want to make the challenging trek that travels through the barren desert and baking sun on the 10-mile Havasupai Trail from Hualapai Hilltop.

"I photograph people their lives, work, everyday life are most often elderly people tired of life and its hardships often lonely." His work is very haunting and focuses on people who live in the poor, rural regions of Eastern Poland.

The Rock restaurant just off shore in Zanzibar. As the sun set, I was taking photos of The Rock before going out there to have dinner. As the light levels dropped, the light came on in the restaurant and I knew I had my shot.
