    Most compelling to me is the ornate design withing the North Korean public transportation system. I guess dictatorship has it's merits sometimes.

    Very nice, but when there's no real threat in not providing electricity or decent wages/food etc to your nations people then, you can afford to be extravagent.:D

    Sorry about that and thanks. :eek:

    I forgot which order I put the images in when I was writing the post and captioned them afterwards. That'll teach me to preview my post.

    I thought that someone else hadn't previewed their post until I noticed that it seems intentional

    :rolleyes:

    I love that Hippodrome image...my job means that I get to visit a lot of historic theaters around the country, but there are none better than the Hippodrome.

    There's a wild one in Louisville though...

    Earth seen from beyond Saturn.


    A recent photo from the Cassini spacecraft shows the mighty planet Saturn, and if you look very closely between its wing-like rings, a faint pinprick of light. That tiny dot is Earth bustling with life as we know it. The image is the second ever taken of our world from deep space. The first, captured by the Voyager spacecraft in 1990, stunned many people, including the famous astronomer Carl Sagan who called our seemingly miniscule planet a "pale blue dot" and "the only home we've ever known."
