The Highly Tolerant Society - beauty, wisdom, terror, and much more - I've been staring at it for 20 minutes or so and I keep picking out new weird details

Some of these are really exceptional. Drone photography is obviously the new thing, sometimes with great effect.

Goddamnit, I've got things to do today. So much to love and admire, but I really like the juxtaposition of tradition and modernity in this one.

The Invasion is one of the most beautiful photos I've ever seen.

I totally thought the pyramid in Teotihuacan was a pit at first. I've never seen that optical illusion in the wild like that.

Yes, these are fantastic photos and are really, really impressive. Interestingly my initial reaction when reading the story behind of these great photos and about how sone were taken from a drone, was to get all huffy and puffy and grumpy-old-man like about this new-fangled technology that is somehow 'cheating'. Silly of course, and as Dip Flash notes upthread, drone photography is being used to great effect. It is here to stay and it should. So much so that maybe, maybe, I might, just might mind you, look at buying one.....

The Grand Lisboa hotel. The ugliest building I ever saw. You can see a full photo here.
