Least Sandpiper (Calidris minutilla)

The least sandpiper is one of tiny shorebird. It is not too much bigger than a sparrow. This bird is love to rummage through the seaweed, and it is very tough to spot them when they are on it. I only manage to see them when they move due to an advancing tide, or I may have inadvertently stepped a bit too close.

Also, it should be noted, that planetary convergence only happens every 2,737 years, and its different for at least 2 more cycles running the program forward… and doesn’t happen again for over 28,000 YEARS if you run that program backwards in time.

Fascinating Glass Chamber Teapot Brews Tea before Your Eyes



Your tea-drinking experience is about to get a lot more spellbinding! The upcoming Sorapot 2 is part teapot and part sculpture and it aims to illustrate you the magical that happens when preparing your beverage. Usually, you would put your loose leaves in a pot, close it, and wait for them to brew. The Sorapot 2 has a glass chamber that changes all of that it lets you see the tea leaves explain right before your very eyes.

Using the teapot is easy. Simply unscrew the stainless-steel lock, unhinge it by the handle, place the leaves in the jar, and then close it. Finally, pour hot water through the spout, take a seat, and observe the hypnotic process of tea extracts combining with water. The teapot also works with teabags but that’s definitely less exciting.

The Sorapot 2 was formed by industrial designer Joey Roth and is offered for pre-order on his website. It’s slated to begin shipping in October. It’s current price tag of $285, and it’s surely not cheap, but what other well-designed teapot makes brewing into an art form?

Photographer Julie Fletcher Leaves Her City Life to Capture Stunning Images of Australian Outback



Photographer Julie Fletcher quitting her office job finishing a failing relationship and leaving city in life in Sydney. She finally is living in her dreams, when traveling to Australia remotest locations to capture stunning landscape and gorgeous wildlife of the land Down under. Julie hold her camera in hand and roams the vast outback and photograph the majestic sights, the iconic and breathtaking Uluru, wild kangaroos peeking up inquisitively, calm lakes dotted with twisted trees, rugged mountains towering over barren land, and brilliant night skies filled with endless stars. 

Well, there is nothing out there but at the same time there is so much if you just see and not just look, the photographer says of the secluded southern regions that she frequents. This region has made me a improved photographer by challenging me all the time. I am continually looking for a changed approach on the same subject. It’s taught me to keep things simple and don’t overthink things.

Julesburg, Colorado, USA

The storm was tornado warned for more than one hour, but it stayed an LP [low precipitation] storm through all its cycles and never produced a tornado, just occasional brief funnels, large hail, and some rain.

Gates of the Valley

The Gates of the Valely in Yosemite National Park stand in soft, smokey light as the sun nears setting. The El Portal Fire a few miles to the west was fueling the air with a blue smokey haze but that haze was no match for the majestic beauty of this splendid landscape. The recognizable face of El Capitan dominates the left and the cascade of Cathedral Rocks makes up the right side of the valley's gateway. Moreover; the hidden behind trees here, Bridalveil Fall was a trickle in this driest of years.
