Natural Wonder of the World – Crystal Castles of Mexico
As deadly as it is beautiful, this hellish cave under a small town in Mexico is quite possibly one of the most inhospitable places on earth.
Sweltering heat, 100% humidity, and 12 meter razor sharp crystals jutting out in all directions. Cheers to Paul Williams for strapping ice packs to his chest and braving the crystal caves to capture them for the upcoming doco; ‘How Earth made us’.

Kazuki Takamatsu ~ Artist
Japanese artist Kazuki Takamastsu is a master of graphic design, animation and modeling, mashing all three skills together to create his works. Using 3D and 2D computer rendering and acrylic gouache painting to bring it all into reality. Or at least the reality that hangs on a wall in a gallery.
These ominous, faceless, colour-less & context-less girls are more then a little creepy.
The images are similar to the “answers” to those old Magic Eye 3D illusion books, but with a splash of Japanese animation influence.
Fu^*ing brilliant!
If you happen to be hanging out in Omotesando , Tokyo – you can check out his work at Spiral Gallery from 28th Oct-3rd Nov 2009. If not only for a look at the fantastic Spiral Gallery itself!
Hit more to check out more of Takamastu’s work.
Special thanks to Kazuki Takamatsu getting in contact for info on his methods of creation.

Sydney Red Dust Storm ~ Beautiful Photography
Sydney lies on the coast of what is essentially a gigantic desert island. Today a red haze descended over the city thanks to a massive dust storm blown out to the shores of New South Whales.
Apart from smothering the city in dust and giving those with Asthma a hard time (Eshay!), the dust has given us some amazing photography.
Hit more to Check them out !!
