Yesterday we saw a few photos of powerless New York City, in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy (or Storm Sandy, as some alliteration fans like to call it). While those photos are, without a doubt, great, they didn’t do a very good job of putting the situation into perspective. Today [...]

Hurricane Sandy wrecked havoc on Caribbean and Mid-Atlantic nations before making landfall and destroying everything in its path in the northwestern United States and parts of Canada. In total, it is estimated that Sandy caused $50 billion worth of damage… not counting the dozens of lives lost. Part of that [...]

Will the fascination of animals we humans have ever cease? Probably not. At least not for the time being because today I have yet another animal shot to show you. This one is about cheetahs and is a bit on the humorous side.

If you run across a cheetah (no [...]

It is hard to one-up yesterday’s amazing photo of a monk sharing his food with a tiger, so I’m not going to try. However, today’s photo is pretty awesome in its own, less-serious right. Today I have to share with you what is being dubbed a ‘kungfu frog’, or as [...]

Back in September we saw Bojnice Castle located in Bojnice, Slovakia (Europe), a castle that looks like it came out of a fairy tale. Today I have another castle to share with you. The following castle, Alnwick Castle in Northumberland, England, may be more familiar to dotTechies than Bojnice because [...]

Designed by architect Frank Gehry, the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, California (USA) was designed and built to be one of the most acoustically sophisticated halls in the world. I’m not sure if it this acoustically friendly nature of the the hall that caused the hall to have [...]

Mount Roraima is a “tabletop” mountain located in South America. More specifically, Roraima is found in Venezuela’s Canaima National Park on the Guiana Shield, bordering Guyana and Brazil. Aside from its semi-unique shape (as you will see in the photo below, it is a flat mountain as opposed to the [...]

So far in dotTech’s Amazing Photo of the Day segment we have covered lions, cheetahs, monkeys, squirrels, turtles, elephants, birds, alligators, dolphins, and more lions. Do you know what (animal) we have not covered, yet? Okay, okay — there are many that we haven’t featured (yet). But I’m thinking of [...]

In the past, dotTech has featured one or two night sky or star photos in our daily Amazing Photo of the Day segment. However, I have yet to come across (and thus I have yet to share) a photo of the night sky that is as stunning and — dare [...]

When you look up in the sky, what do you see? Clouds, maybe. While it sounds a bit odd because of how we think of clouds as three dimensional figures, the clouds you see in the sky typically have “flat” bottoms. So if normal clouds have flat bottoms, what type [...]

I’m not much of a bridge person. Sure, they are useful when you need to cross a body of water but they aren’t something I wet my bed over… if you get what I mean. (Clearly, I’m not fit to be an engineer.) However, a bridge made of three, large [...]

Who invented the camera? Man. We don’t really know which man, specifically, so the concept of camera is attributed to a developed innovation over the long years of human history. Did you think cameras are only for humanoids? If so, think again. The following image is obviously proof that squirrels [...]

A photographer by the name of Colleen Pinski wanted to capture awesome photographs of the solar eclipse that occurred on May 20 earlier this year. So she hopped in her car and traveled from Colorado, Denver, to Albuquerque, New Mexico (roughly 370 miles). Once there, she setup shop and captured [...]

We have seen tornado. We have seen lightning. We have seen fire (sort of). But we haven’t yet seen tornado, lightning, and fire all in the same place at the same time. That will change… now.

The following photograph, which includes a combination of a tornado, lightning, and fire, is [...]

Okay, today I have something to share with you that is mind boggling and interesting at the same time. The following are photographs of the Rain Room, an exhibit put together by Random International at the Curve gallery in the Barbican in London. In this room it always rains [...]

Ever see in the movies those cameras that secretly shoot a bullet? You know, the ones often used to assassinate people. Yeah, well, today I have something similar to show you today albeit it is a bit less devious.

The following is a photograph of a camera gun, as imagine [...]

WARNING: The photo I have to share with you today may make your heart melt… if you have a heart.

The following photograph is of a litter of three three-weeks old cubs (they look like cheetah cubs, but I’m not 100% sure about that). It isn’t as much of a [...]

If you live, or have lived, in a cold climate with nearby bodies of water, you have probably seen frozen lakes before. It is nothing new for you. If you do not, or have not, lived in a cold climate with nearby bodies of water, you probably have heard but [...]

I believe I can fly, I believe I can touch the skyyyyyyyyyyy. I think about it every night and day… I still remember that song from the movie Space Jam. Why exactly am I butchering the song now? Because I just came across a picture of a flying squirrel.

Okay, [...]

I remember back in elementary school we had this outrageous physical education class where we had to test our body strength, among other things (clearly the geeks dominated in PE). While I didn’t do too bad in most of the exercises (although I wasn’t even close to the best), one [...]
