Your Shot community member Achintya Guchhait captured this photo of brave “travelers and locals taking shelter under a huge rock [that’s been] stuck for ages in Mahabalipuram, India.” The rock, perched in a gravity-defying position on the edge of a hill, is nicknamed Krishna’s Butter Ball. Scientists believe it was likely placed by ancient glacial activity; however, legend has it that Lord Krishna, a fan of butter, dropped it where it sits.

The skies are in constant movement over the stillness of Dead Vlei in Namibia. Dead Vlei, meaning “dead marsh,” is a clay pan studded with the remnants of trees that died hundreds of years ago. The star trails are a fitting backdrop to a landscape that looks otherworldly even in the light of day.

Built in the early 20th century by affluent members of the Dawoodi Bohra community of Muslim traders, these houses add color and resplendence to a neighborhood in Sidhpur, in the Indian state of Gujarat. Known as havelis, the homes’ architecture reveals baroque, Gothic, British colonial, and art deco influences.

Colima Volcano erupts with rock showers, lightning, and lava flows. The volcano, which is one of the most active in Mexico, showed an increase in activity from July onwards.

–

Lightning in volcano eruptions is generated when rock fragments, ash and ice particles in the volcanic plume collide, producing static charges – just as ice particles do in clouds.

PENAMPAKAN HANTU DALAM FOTO

–
Martin Springal, 38 tahun, memfoto anak perempuan kecilnya dekat bebatuan di pantai Zushi, Jepang, pada bulan Juli 2014. Hasil fotonya sangat mengejutkan Martin, karena di belakang kaki anak kecilnya itu terlihat sepasang kaki bersepatu boot hitam, padahal saat difoto tak ada seorangpun di belakangnya. Ada yang memperkirakan bahwa itu adalah sepatu boot seorang Samurai atau sepatu seragam seorang serdadu Amerika pada Perang Dunia II. Martin bersikeras bahwa foto itu bukan hasil photoshop (rekayasa).

The virus is scary, but it’s also rare. You can get it only from direct contact with an infected person’s body fluids.
