Though possessing a name which may suggest a less interesting (albeit
fitting) subject, Falls Creek Falls is among the largest and most
powerful waterfalls in southern Washington. Fed by an extensive network
of springs and streams originating on the Red Mountain plateau - itself a
product of the volcanic eruptions which created nearby Big Lava Field -
Falls Creek sends a considerable volume of water hurtling 335 feet over
its valley's headwall in three distinct steps. The upper tier veils 109
feet in a broad fan-shaped fall which skips down the initial tier of
the cliff. Shortly after, the creek spreads out to a breadth of over
100-feet across a gently domed ledge and plunges 135 feet in several
segments. After gathering through a cluster of large boulders which have
fallen off the adjacent cliffs, the third tier leaps a final 91-feet
into a narrow amphitheater gorge. Shortly downstream of the falls are a
series of sliding cascades as well, though views of which are harder to
come by (we did not include these cascades with the height of the
falls).

The Breathtaking Video of "The Mountain"
This was filmed between 4th and 11th April 2011.
I had the pleasure of visiting El Teide Mountain. Spain´s highest mountain at
3718m is one of the best places in the world to photograph the shining stars
and the location of Teide Observatories, considered to be one of the world´s
best observatories. The main object was to capture the beautiful Milky Way
galaxy along with one of the most astonishing mountains I know El Teide. I have
to say this was one of the most exhausting trips I have done. There was a lot
of hiking at high altitudes and perhaps less than 10 hours of sleep in total
for the whole week. Having been here 10-11 times before I had a long list of
must-see locations I wanted to capture for this movie, but I am still not 100%
used to carrying around so much gear required for time-lapse movies. A large
sandstorm hit the Sahara Desert at approx. 3am in the night the sandstorm hit
me, making it nearly impossible to see the sky with my own eyes.
Interestingly plenty of my cameras were set for a
five hour sequence of the Milky Way during this time and I was sure my whole
scene was ruined. To my surprise, my camera had managed to capture the
sandstorm which was backlit by Grand Canary Island making it look like golden
clouds. The Milky Way was shining through the clouds, making the stars sparkle
in an interesting way. So if you’ve ever wondered how the Milky Way would look
through a Sahara sandstorm. This is really breathtaking work, can't even
explain this. This is complete video, with amazing & perfect soundtrack,
the quality of your images are just incredible, it really shows what a gorgeous
world we have and most of the time we don’t even realize. We loved it; I
consider this a gorgeous masterpiece. Wish you the best dude, keep on with this
talent.

Bioluminescent Forest
The projection mapping
"bioluminescent forest" is made by artists Friedrich van Schoor and
Tarek Mawad. The talented artists spent more than six weeks in the forest captivated
by the silence and natural occurrences in nature, especially the phenomenon
"bioluminescence". They personified the forest to accentuate the
natural beauty by creating luring luminescent plants and glowing enchanted
mushrooms that speaks volumes to any visitor that enters the minds of the
artists through viewing "bioluminescent forest".

Crepuscular Rays
Crepuscular rays are also called as “Sun
rays” in atmospheric optics, are actually rays of sunlight that appear to
radiate from the point in the sky where the sun is located. These rays, which
stream through gaps in clouds mainly stratocumulus or between other objects,
are columns of sunlit air separated by darker cloud-shadowed regions. In spite
of seeming to converge at a point, the rays are actually fact near-parallel
shafts of sunlight, and their apparent convergence is a perspective effect
alike, i.e., to the way that parallel railway lines seem to converge at a point
in the distance.
The name comes from their frequent
occurrences during twilight hours those around dawn and dusk, when the
contrasts in the middle of light and dark are the most obvious. The name
“Crepuscular” comes from the Latin word "Crepusculum", which means
twilight. The rays in some cases may spread across the sky and appear to
converge at the antisolar point, the point on the sky sphere directly opposite
the sun. In this case they’re called anticrepuscular rays. These are not as
easily spotted as crepuscular rays. This apparent dual convergence to both the
solar and antisolar points is a perspective effect analogous to railway tracks
appearing to converge to opposite points in opposite directions.
Color
Crepuscular rays are frequently red or
yellow in appearance since the path through the atmosphere at sunrise and
sunset passes through up to 40 times as much air as rays from a high midday
sun. However; particles in the air scatter short wavelength light blue and
green through Rayleigh scattering much more strongly than longer wavelength
yellow and red light.

Unearthly Photographs of a Fall Day in Montreal
Well, those peoples who’re living
in Montreal are must be used too with extreme weather changes but not many may
have seen them such freezing, and coldness scenes after sun rising. Therefore; in the middle of the fall season a
cold front hit and with the winds blowing created something otherworldly.
Initially you had a glimpse of it
from the other side of the canal. You can observe the trees are fully covered
in ice and with the sun setting, as it would be quite unique instance. So, the
next you’ve to be braved the cold and made your way there. The water sprayed
through the air with the strong winds causing me to clean the lens every few
seconds but perhaps I managed to get the shots. Dejectedly, no frost giants
found.Source: Boredpanda
