bull marathon in mkt 2day :D







the image above : The Baikal (SIBERIA) Ice Marathon is one of the world’s toughest endurance challenges. Over the years, the one-of-a-kind event has seen participants from over 50 countries. These are athletes with a heart of steel – they race across a 42 kilometer course across the completely frozen surface of Baikal, the oldest and deepest freshwater lake on Earth.
The biggest challenge faced by runners: In past marathons conditions have varied in severity – from high winds and biting cold, to a sunny sky with almost no chills. The lake’s surface is another problem; at times it can be hard and uneven, covered in small hills of ice rubble. Geometric springs and seismic activity beneath the ice may weaken it to form holes.

Neurologists can explain how many optical illusions work, but illusory motion is a bit tougher to nail down. The leading theory states that the eye’s short, rapid movements called “saccades” can influence how your brain perceives what is important and what is not. Due to how the geometric shapes are arranged, the eye moves even slightly (some of the motions are microscopic) to take the entire image in, and the focus is constantly shifting. As the gaze shifts, different neurons are activated, and the image appears to be moving.

Neurologists hope to use the information gathered from these studies about how the brain processes these illusions in order to help develop a neural prosthetic for those who have suffered brain damage and need assistance with motion perception.

mkts empty of traders 2day:D





THE IMAGE above : its d world’s eeriest cinema hall , located in the Sinai Peninsula, in the Egyptian desert. Well, it isn’t exactly a hall. It’s more like an arrangement of wooden seats out in the OPEN. It has been dubbed the ‘End of the World’ Cinema.
The 150 seats are completely worn out, the screen’s foundations are broken and the building that once housed the generator and projector is in ruins. Surprisingly, the cinema is only a decade old.

mkt in constant colour changing mode today:D






the image above : BELIEVE IT OR NOT !!You’ll have to look really close at this picture of a beautiful parrot 2 realize that it’s not a parrot at all. d rich red n-gold plumes are, in fact, a woman’s limbs painted to perfection. the head of the parrot is actually the woman’s left arm wrapped around her head. The wings are formed by her right leg n arm, while her outstretched left leg is made 2 resemble the tail.
The incredibly clever photograph is the work of 35-year-old body painter Johannes Stoetter. The artist, who lives in Italy, spent 4 long weeks planning d transformation of a female model into a hauntingly realistic parrot. The actual painting work took him abt four hours 2 complete and he spent another hour positioning the model on a tree stump before clicking a series of photographs. Stoetter said that he chose 2 have the model sit on a tree stump to enhance the life-like appearance. Asou can imagine, d entire process was quite complicated n painstaking.

THE IMAGE ABOVE :
Dis is what I call expensive art! While most artists spend money on art supplies, this Ukrainian man actually used money itself. 29-year-old chef Sergei Nikolayev Knurov fashioned a detailed miniature ship out of a variety of Ukrainian coins. The final piece contains a whopping 17,000 coins, wid bank notes for sails.

Thank you Sudoku :clapping:

It is amazing that you not only put up interesting images, but also have a writeup on the same, which many times act as stress busters.
 
THE IMAGEs ABOVE : Scott Young is a thrill seeker unlike any other. Most adventurers r content with just traveling the world, but this young daredevil takes d phrase ‘living on the edge’ 2 a whole new level. He actually performs handstands on top of skyscrapers n other tall buildings in evry city that he visits. Scott climbs 2 the very edge of buildings up to 40 storeys high (that’s nearly 500 foot) and hangs up-side-down !!!! And get this – he doesn’t use any safety ropes or nets. He only carries a small camera strapped 2 his foot, 2 record the vertigo-inducing view below.
In India, that will get you arrested :D
