    Just a note, could you hit 'preview post' before submitting to make sure that your picture isn't too big for the screen? If it is, a smaller substitute can be found on Google images just by clicking 'show options' and then 'medium'. It just makes for neater viewing.

    :)

    Soviet Army maps, give a guess of the locations! I hope your use of the cyrillic alphabet is good!;)

    A frozen sea-ice vortex off the coast of Norway over the winter. Very rare to see, mainly occured due to the more-than-extreme weather northern Europe had this winter

    This is more man-made but crazy nontheless.

    Basically China has constructed a huge scale model of a section of the India- China broder region in one of China's northern deserts. It was spotted on GoogleEarth.
