Day in Pictures

SFGate has an arsenal of pictures for public view. 'A Day in Pictures' section has photos from all over the world. They are not only aesthetically interesting, but some shots are dumbfounding, shocking and funny. These are my favorites of today.


This glacier, located in Argentina, is slowly melting. Any small fraction of a glacier that falls brings danger to every coast along it's periphery. The more this glacier melts, both the sea and the river levels rise, thus inundating nearing communities.This pictures captures the exact moment a part of the glacier falls. I wonder what was going on through the spectator's minds while watching this...

*Here is thorough article on the d
angers of Glacial Melting that threatens South American countries like Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentina.


This picture has great composition.. to say the least. The Acropolis looks like it is being illuminated by the heavens. It seems like some form of darkness is trying to cover up the sky, but its attempts fail when a downward projected light illuminates this famous pagan monument.
It is such an impressing shot. Timing is everything.
