Carrying on my theme of photo's of my trip to Paris a few years ago. I find this next photo glorious in that someone was able to fashion the sculpture from a block of stone. I find it mind blowing that people have this skill! Yes some dimensions appear wrong, but....it's just beautiful.

Stonehenge, the first sunrise of the summer.
The 21st day of June is the longest day of the year, when the Sun is at its maximum elevation.

Cyclists stop to look at a chalk drawing of a canyon on Regent's canal towpath in London.
It was commissioned by British Waterways to encourage people to slow down when cycling alongside canals.

A sandstorm moves from Africa toward the Cape Verde islands. The Tenatso Observatory on the island of Sao Vicente was recently set up to study how such storms deliver iron and phosphorus, needed by cyanobacteria that fix nitrogen in the nutrient-poor waters.

His three children were spotted out with their faces visible last summer.

Nice pictures of the snow leopard cubs. You know who is in this picture and where it was taken. Maybe the snow leopards were born to run ;)
