They depart one week later, having left no trace whatsoever. Trying to explain what Burning Man is to someone who has never been to the event is a bit like trying to explain what a particular color looks like to someone who is blind. To truly understand this event, one must participate. UFO Houses, Ruins of the Future, now just a memory [30 Pics. UFO Houses: Orange.

The following photos of Planet Mars shatters the idea of an all “red” planet.
Mind-blowing artistic rendering of Mars. The outstanding digital rendering techniques of the Dutchman Kees Veenenbos have been featured in National Geographic and on NASA pages .
The images he rendered are made with a landscape program called Terragen. He has worked with this program already since 1999 in different versions. Most are made with digital elevation models of NASA, from different satellites like the Mars Global Surveyor for example. He made a lot of images for National Geographic, Mars images, but also of good old Earth and other planets in the solar system and even extra solar planets.
We have put together a collection of his fantastic made images of recent and ancient Mars (with water and ice). Earth satellite photos turned into fantastic art.

The tiger’s mouth is the great Eyjafjorour, a deep fjord that juts into the mainland between steep mountains. The name means “island fjord,” derived from the tiny, tear-shaped Hrisey Island near its mouth. The ice-free port city of Akureyri lies near the fjord’s narrow tip, and is Iceland’s second largest population center after the capital, Reykjavik.
