This is – this dream of a lover of chocolate. Huge sculpture, imitating the ancient wonder of the world – Teotihuacan, made ​​entirely of chocolate. I wonder whether to allow the sculptor to try your work of art,
because it is a miracle in a lot of effort spent.

It is just an opening of “Marks & Spencer” shop.

Owned by brothers, Marion Rutherford ,Linus was a symbol of Oregon Beauty. Rutherford Brothers have sold the stallion to the circus on wheels, where he became the main “chip” of any program.
Well-groomed and well fed Linus has been featured in the magazine Scientific American:

In the brochure for the show was written: “During the four years of his mane and tail is increased by about 3 inches per month, and now have reached its peak. Its color – glossy chestnut-gold. The hind legs, and face – white mane and tail – a delicate linen color. His “hair” and now continues to grow, but slowly. Linus proudly holds his head and is proud of adoring eyes of visitors. His mane is 14 feet in length, and the tail – 12. ”

Of course, mane and tail were in need of a thorough clean. Every day, they carefully washed and combed it. In order to mane no tangling and it was divided into 4 pieces and collected in bundles, but even though such measures, it is still tangled.

Linus died in 1894 at age 10, but before he had produced a son named Linus II, who was said to have been as handsome as his father. As Oregon wonderful long-haired horses – unfortunately, this breed has been lost.

Brrrrr! It’s making us shiver just looking at this snow-covered outhouse. We’re just hoping there’s enough toilet paper, as you wouldn’t want to be caught with your pants down here. Still, with the clouds rolling in and all that snow around, at least washing your hands shouldn’t be a problem…As well as worrying about frostbite, patrons of this toilet should also be aware that it’s in full view of the fire lookout tower in Hood River County, Oregon, so in fact, despite appearances, privacy might be a bit of an issue, too.

Just imagine having to answer nature’s call after a long, exhausting hike or a strenuous climb. Then think of your glee at finding a proper toilet in the middle of nowhere. Just as you open the door, you see the sign “private property”. Ah, what rotten luck! But then again, who would know? If you want to face this dilemma for real, this loneliest of lavs (reachable only by ski plane) can be found on Alaska’s Mount McKinley. It is part of the Don Sheldon Mountain Hut and was built in 1966.

Here’s another view of the lodge and outhouse to put things in perspective. Imagine having to go out there in the middle of the night… Without the stunning scenery to guide visitors, it doesn’t seem like a good idea, given the precarious walk. Perhaps best to squeeze tight and hold those pressing urges until morning!

Looking at this image, one wonders what people were thinking, giving this outhouse such a perilous location. Maybe they liked the thrill of ‘toileting’ on the edge – or the feeling of the wind blowing as they were doing so? In either case, this crapper is private and for use only by the fire lookout on Moose Mountain, Alberta, Canada. For our part, we are relieved (pun intended) to see some steel cables holding it in place.

Speaking of crappers, the story behind that particular nickname for toilet is an interesting one. There was actually a man named Thomas Crapper who lived during the Victorian era, from 1836 to 1910 to be precise. He was a plumber, and though he did not invent the flush toilet (as is often mistakenly assumed) he founded a London-based company that made lavatorial supplies called Thomas Crapper & Co. The quality of his products was so good that he soon received royal warrants. To this day, toilets are still sometimes known as crappers. (Just don’t go using that term in front of your grandma…)

Flat out crappy may be an accurate description for this Porta-Potty, which seems to be not only the loneliest but also the remotest portable toilet on earth. After all, who’s going to come by and empty it? And how often?Portable sanitation units, as they are officially called, have actually been around since the 1960s. This particular one can be found in Aruba’s Arikok National Park, which takes up approximately 18 percent of the island. The national park that is, not the Porta-John! Aruba, part of the Lesser Antilles – located just north of the Venezuelan coast and belonging to the Netherlands – is famous for its varied rock formations, iguanas, snake and bird species and, apparently, one lonely, plastic restroom.

This isolated can sits in Bodie, CA. It may literally be the loneliest bathroom around as Bodie is a nineteenth- / early twentieth-century ghost town, a remnant of the Gold Rush. On second thoughts, with 200,000 visitors a year to the historic destination, this old-fashioned outhouse might not be so solitary after all.

Apparently, remote toilets were popular in Bodie, CA: here’s another lonely loo that’s amazingly well-preserved. One wonders if it is still in use. The door is non-existent, but hey, who would want to miss out on the view of those perfect cotton-wool clouds rolling by?

Here, we have not one but two toilets; in fact, a whole toilet house. If you look closely, you can even still see the faint outline of a man painted on the left and a woman on the right side. Though we can’t know for sure, we’re assuming the toilets fell into disrepair due to lack of use. After all, who’s going to bother fixing a remote bathroom smack in the middle of the Peruvian desert that’s only used once every blue moon? The location’s scenic, though, and we’d assume it’s popular with squatters (if you’ll forgive the pun).

We’re not sure if the owner of this outhouse was aiming for a bit of peace and quiet or whether they deliberately looked for the most scenic spot around. What could be more relaxing than a comfort station amid the rural tranquility of trees and rolling hills? (Just so long as there’s enough toilet paper…)

This image of a colorful outhouse in Maseru, Lesotho is one of our favorites. A lovely plateau overlooking the foothills of the Maloti Mountains, earthy tones supported by white, cottony clouds above… and bam! in the middle of it all you’ve got a brightly-painted outhouse in yellow and blue. What’s not to love?

The outhouse pictured here is probably the most luxurious of the lot. Seemingly immaculate, it comes complete with a “private” sign and a lock. Not to mention the view over Kananaskis Country in Alberta, Canada. Just lovely.

This lonely john in Brennelv, Norway gets extra points for the lovingly carved-out heart in the door. Isn’t it an outhouse straight out of a textbook? For those, er, longer sessions, there should be a do-it-yourself guide provided for those inspired to copy this fine example of craftsmanship.

California’s Death Valley, more specifically the Shoshone Mines, is the setting for this lonely outhouse. This is actually a nighttime shot, made even more spectacular by the star trails that were also captured. Wish upon a star… while doing your business. Priceless.

Huglin said that it was both interesting and awkward to be in the presence of these powerful animals. “Dolphins are really skilled swimmers – he says. – Their length is three meters. Putting your hand on the dolphin, you will feel only the force. It’s amazing how powerful they are. ” (Photo by Greg Huglin)

Sometimes Huglin uses a tripod to take pictures from the ground. “The dolphins catch a wave when it breaks,” – says the photographer. (Photo by Greg Huglin)

During trips to the coast of South Africa’s Greg Huglin photographs from different vantage points: from a helicopter, a motor boat and by land. All photos were taken with cameras, not digital cameras. (Photo by Greg Huglin)

Huglin made his photo from a motor boat. Here are five dolphins, just heading to the crest of a wave. (Photo by Greg Huglin)

Huglin spent his entire career, photographing and filming great white sharks, dolphins and other marine creatures, as well as extreme sports. His trip to South Africa was the culmination of his career. “From dawn to a Cossack, I was here, or photographing sharks, dolphins or chasing.” (Photo by Greg Huglin)

To communicate dolphins emit whistles and squeaks, as well as skillfully use body language. To send away, they usually beat their tails on the water and begin to jump into the air. (Photo by Greg Huglin)

Huglin knew that dolphins often jump into the air for some reason, but having tracked them for hours, he also came to believe that they can jump just for the sake of fun. “I can not think what they’re doing it just because they really like it.»(Photo by Greg Huglin)
