Whales Swimming Under The Northern Light

Whales Swimming Under The Northern Light Harald Albrigtsen witnessed a couple of surprise guests while recently taking in the beauty of the Northern Lights over Norway. The photographer, who was filming a video for Norwegian public television (NRK) at the time, observed two humpback whales swimming under the bright green, glowing backdrop. They were spotted off the coast of the island Kvaløya near the city Tromsø. The creatures in the clip—which you can view below—appear subtly as the waves of the water slowly begin to build and increase in size. At a few points in Albrightsen’s video, they’re seen coming up for air and show themselves to lucky spectators. Coupled with the spectacular sky, the whales add another layer of natural wonder to the already-gorgeous scene.

Incredible Landscapes Artwork on Fallen Leaves by Artist Joanna Wirażka It's that wonderful time of year again when the leaves turn red, golden and brown and gather in enticing piles at the side of our streets, all ready to be jumped in and kicked about. But Polish artist  Joanna Wirażka  doesn't just play in them; she also loves to pick up and collect fallen leaves to use them as canvases for her artworks.

Mesmerizing Hourglass that Replaces Sand with Bubbles

Mesmerizing Hourglass that Replaces Sand with Bubbles The sands of an hourglass can make you feel as though time is slipping away.  Norihiko Terayama  has created an object that, although shaped like an hourglass, has the opposite effect. The  Awaglass  replaces the minuscule pebbles with frothy bubbles that pass upwards at different speeds. Unlike a sandglass, which is used to mark the passing of moments, the Awaglass is meant to obscure them. Instead, you’ll get lost in its constant, fluid motion and remain in the present—not fixated on what you have to accomplish an hour from now. Perfect for your desk, the soothing Awaglass comes in two sizes—large and small—and is available to purchase online .

Photogenic Rescue Squirrel Is A Huge Fan Of Her New Life

Photogenic Rescue Squirrel Is A Huge Fan Of Her New Life If there's one good thing that came out of Hurricane Isaac, it's definitely Jill the squirrel. This adorable little creature was rescued from the destructive tropical cyclone that struck Louisiana and now lives an enviably fabulous life. She spends her days modeling new accessories, napping, maintaining her vegetarian diet, dog-sitting, climbing around the house, and did we mention napping? And, despite her size, Jill isn't afraid of her owner's black cat Binks. While the two do tolerate each other from a distance, their guardian doesn't allow them to socialize (just in case). Otherwise, from the looks of the 3-year-old squirrel's  Instagram  account, it seems like Jill is living a life of luxury.
