The Exotic Beauty of Colonial Fungi
Earlier this week we encountered a rather, um, phallic fungus. I marveled at its unique biological splendor and one-of-a-kind “fruiting body”. I also called it weird.
But that fungus has nothing on the beauty of these colony-growing species, captured in stunning microphotography. Included: Aspergillus fumigatus, and genera Botrytis, Mucor, Trichoderma, and Cladosporium

Aurora Borealis in the Finnish Lapland
We all like time-lapse videos of auroras, right? Of course we do! Set this one to HD, go full screen, and gird your loins.
Say what you will about the Finnish, but they can make a helluva video about auroras. Actually, scratch that, no one says anything bad about the Finnish.
