Also good for hiding from cameras.
For those who might be interested, I found a larger version (higher resolution) of this picture. You could enlarge it further, AI software does a great job of enlarging without loss of quality (to a point, of course). Then you could frame it and hang it on your wall. Just a thought.
The resolution is 1638 x 2048.

Each red flag represents a dead body on Mt Everest. Because the mountain is so high/cold, it’s nearly impossible to retrieve the bodies safely.
It’s sad and amazing how many bodies are up on Mt Everest. I counted a few (not all) below the dotted line and came to 34. I didn’t count any above the dotted line. There must be over 100 bodies up there.
Here is one of them. He’s known as ‘Green Boots’.

At the very dawn of the 20th century, Russian photographer Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii (1863-1944) developed a three lens camera that produced pictures of unbelievable quality for the time. Impressed, the Tsar Nicolas II sent him on a photographic survey of the Russian Empire.
The pictures Sergei managed to take, despite being over a century old, look like they could have been taken yesterday, giving a crystal clear window into the daily lives of Russians and their subjects ten years before the Soviet Union.
Note: These pictures were larger when I copied them from the source. I couldn’t click on them to enlarge them, but I was able to zoom in on them to enlarge them. Considering they are more than 100 years old, the quality is truly unbelievable.
Search Sergei Prokudin-Gorskii for yourself, because all his pictures are breathtaking and this is far from all of them.

Last Night in Swed… um, Island
The magma beneath Grindavík had spread underground over the last few months, and now it can not only be felt but also seen
