The Blood Falls in Antartica.
Blood Falls is an outflow of an iron oxide-tainted plume of saltwater, flowing from the tongue of the Taylor Glacier onto the ice-covered surface of West Lake Bonney in the Taylor Valley of the McMurdo Dry Valleys in Victoria Land, East Antarctica
Rainbow Eucalyptus Trees in Kailua, Hawaii.
Eucalyptus deglupta is a tall tree, commonly known as the rainbow eucalyptus. It is the only Eucalyptus species found naturally in New Britain, New Guinea, Ceram, Sulawesi and Mindanao. The unique multi-coloured bark is the most distinctive feature of the tree. Patches of outer bark are shed annually at different times, showing a bright green inner bark. This then darkens and matures to give blue, purple, orange and then maroon tones.
The Wave Arizona.
The Wave is a sandstone formation on the slopes of the Coyote Buttes in the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness, located in northern portion of the U.S. state of Arizona. The Beautiful sandstone formation is famous among hikers and photographers for its colorful, undulating forms, and the rugged.
Shimmering Shores of Vaadhoo, Maldives.
Pinpricks of light on the shore seem to mirror stars, as seen in above picture taken on Vaadhoo Island in the Maldives. Glowing Blue Waves, the biological light, or bioluminescence, in the waves is the product of marine microbes called phytoplankton.
Light Pillars Over Moscow.
It’s a visual phenomenon created by the reflection of light from ice crystals with near horizontal parallel planar surfaces. The light can come from the Sun, Moon or from terrestrial sources such as streetlights.
Reflective Salt Flats in Bolivia.
Amazing salt flats where the sky and ground merge into one to create dreamy landscapes. Salar de Uyuni is the world’s largest salt flat at 10,582 square km. This is not water, the ground is covered in a layer of salt crust so reflective, it perfectly mirrors the sky. The Salar was formed as a result of transformations between several prehistoric lakes. It is covered by a few meters of salt crust, which has an extraordinary flatness with the average altitude variations within one meter over the entire area of the Salar.
Cenote, Underground Natural Spring in Mexico.
Nature creates wonders, sometime its really hard to believe, this underground natural spring in Mexico is one of them. Known as Cenote, is a natural pit, or sinkhole resulting from the collapse of limestone bedrock that exposes groundwater underneath.
The Dirty Thunderstorm.
A dirty thunderstorm, also “Volcanic lightning” is a weather phenomenon that occurs when lightning is produced in a volcanic plume. A study indicated that electrical charges are generated when rock fragments, ash, and ice particles in a volcanic plume collide and produce static charges, just as ice particles collide in regular thunderstorms. Volcanic eruptions also release large amounts of water, which may help fuel these thunderstorms.
The Ghost Trees in Pakistan.
The eye-catching phenomenon is an unexpected side-effect of the flooding in parts of Pakistan. Millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape the rising flood waters, shrouding them with their silky webs. Because of the scale of the flooding and the fact that the water has taken so long to recede, many trees have become cocooned in ghostly spiders webs.
'Life Within Death ' : Chinese Lantern (China, Japan and Southern Europe)
Physalis alkekengi, or the Chinese/Japanese Lantern, blooms during Winter and dries during Spring. Once it is dried, the bright red fruit is seen. The outer cover is a thin mesh that held the flower petals, seen in golden brown colour.
Auroras (Near the Polar Regions of the Earth)
An aurora is a natural light display in the sky particularly in the high latitude regions, caused by the collision of energetic charged particles with atoms in the high altitude atmosphere. The result is a stream of beautiful green displays that run across the sky creating a luminescent kind of effect.

Living Rock: Pyura chilensis (Chile and Peru)
Sometimes referred to as a 'living rock' , Pyura chilensis is a tunicate that resembles a mass of organs inside a rock. It is often found in dense aggregations in the intertidal and subtidal coast of Chile and Peru. It is the closest anyone can get to finding blood in a stone! It is also served as a local delicacy in the cities surrounding the coasts.
Tasmanian Giant Crab (Southern waters of Australia)
AKA “Giant Deepwater Crab” – One of the largest crabs in the world. – Weighs a mighty 29lb with a 15-inch shell. – It has a white shell with claws that are splashed in red.
The Dragon's Skull ( Europe, the United States, and North Africa)
This weird little plant is called a Snapdragon or Dragon flower or, if you want to sound even smarter, The Antirrhinum. Once the flower has died, the seed pod begins to look like the skulls you see here. Apart from being creepy as hell and alleged protectors of the garden, if you wore this about your body you would appear to be more “fascinating and gracious”. Though I imagine if anyone actually did find this on you, fascinating and gracious are not the only things they will think about you.

Pink Lake Hillier in Australia
When you think of what color a lake might be; blue, brown, maybe even green may come to mind. But I doubt you would ever associate the color pink with of body of water. Well for anyone traveling over the western islands of Australia this unbelievable phenomenon can be witnessed with their own eyes.
