Aircraft Nose Art

In Photography 14,220 views

Nose art is a decorative painting or design on the fuselage of a military aircraft, usually located near the nose, and is a form of aircraft graffiti.

While begun for practical reasons of identifying friendly units, the practice evolved to express the individuality often constrained by the uniformity of the military, to evoke memories of home and peacetime life, and as a kind of psychological protection against the stresses of war and the probability of death. The appeal, in part, came from nose art not being officially approved, even when the regulations against it were not enforced.

Mostly, various girls are the subject of the nose art.

Funny Pictures of “Skillful” Parking

I always think parking is the most difficult part of driving. Hence, I am so impressed when I saw the photos listed below. Some of those pictures are too idiotic for me to believe that is possible in a normal parking. Or they are just some show-off from some skillful drivers. Anyway, it is still funny to look those pictures.

7 Amazing Astronomical and natural phenomena

In Photography 11,744 views

In this post, I will present you with 7 Amazing Astronomical and natural phenomena : solar eclipse, lunar eclipse, Storm chasing, Perseid Meteor Shower and so on…..

1. solar eclipse

A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth so that the Sun is fully or partially covered. This can only happen during a new moon, when the Sun and Moon are in conjunction as seen from the Earth. At least two and up to five solar eclipses can occur each year on Earth, with between zero and two of them being total eclipses. Total solar eclipses are nevertheless rare at any location because during each eclipse totality exists only along a narrow corridor in the relatively tiny area of the Moon’s umbra.
