Amazing Nature and Landscape Photography

Landscape and natural photography is one of the toughest forms in photography. Landscape photography is an art that captures beautiful moments from nature. Landscape photography is a genre of photography devoted to capturing and sharing vast open spaces all around the world. It is an area that specializes in seizing the true essence of life the way nature has intended it to be, with little or even no human obstruction or involvement. There is no absolute rule that defines a landscape photo. Landscape photography is a broad term that could include seascape, nature, urban, industrial, and even macro photography. Landscape photographers usually attempt not only to convey the documentary aspect, but also an appreciation of the scenery that is being photographed. Below, we present to you a collection of Landscape and natural photography shots that would really took your breath away. We hope you enjoy your visit!Dunnigan Hills Appellation

Cina Temukan Patung Serdadu dari Tanah Liat

Arkeolog Cina sudah menemukan lebih 110 serdadu tanah liat (terracotta) yang belum pernah terbongkar selama berabad-abad. Patung-patung serdadu ini ditemukan dekat mausoleum Kaisar Qin di kota Xi'an bagian utara. Patung-patung ini diduga adalah bagian dari tentara untuk 'menjaga' peristirahatan terakhir kaisar pertama Cina tersebut. Salah satu yang ditemukan adalah patung serdadu raksasa setinggi 2,5 meter dan perisai berlapis kulit sepanjang 60 cm dan lebar 40 cm, dua kali lebih besar dari perisai tembaga yang ditemukan pada 1980an. Setiap serdadu ini memiliki ekspresi wajah yang berbeda-beda. Sebagian patung ditemukan terbakar dan tak berbentuk lagi. Xiang Yu, pemimpin militer pada dinasti Qin dipercaya sebagai orang yang memerintahkan pembakaran mausoleum, kata Shen Maosheng, seorang arkeolog.A member of an archaeology …
