Lenticular Cloud at Sunset


"A Lenticular Cloud formation has drifted off the top of Mt. Shasta, CA. The New-Agers in town like to think it is a Lemurian space ship visiting the 'inhabitants' of the city of Telos that exists within the mountain. It helps if one 'hears' the tune from Twilight Zone while viewing this weather phenomenon". Taken by Terry

Hong Kong: Victoria Harbour


Beloved Victoria Harbour in the early morning. It was really a costly session as there is no public transport (who would offer any for a tourist spot in early morning?), and it is proved further costly as the massive clouds just killed the magic hour and sunrise. Taken in Hong Kong by Clementqc

Himba Tribes Woman


The Himba are an ethnic group of about 25,000 people living in northern Namibia, and southern Angola. The Himba women wear very little clothing, and they cover their skin with mixture of butter fat and red clay. That gives shine and reddish texture. It's Himbas ideal of beauty and protects the skin from sun. The hairstyle worn by Himba women is also quite unique. The hair is braided ("weaved") and covered with the mixture of butter oil and special type of red clay. Before reaching the puberty girls have only two hair braids. After the puberty they are allowed to make more of them. Taken by Igor Bilić
