Today - another traditional collection of such photographs, collected for October 29 - November 04.

Emperor penguins are the Olympic swimmers of Antarctica. They are able to dive to a depth of more than 500 meters, and stay there for 20 minutes in one go. Fascinated by these beauties, the photographer was not afraid to enter the water with a temperature of -2 degrees to take a series of pictures.

The Romanian city of Buzescu, located just 80 km from the capital, Bucharest, is considered one of the richest cities in the world. The city of gypsy barons is its unofficial name, and all because its population, which is about 5 thousand people, belongs to one of the most mysterious peoples, the gypsies. On both sides of the main street of Busescu, there are fantastic mansions that look like palaces, fairytale castles, impregnable fortresses. Their facades are decorated with exquisite balconies and columns, roofs - with towers, turrets and domes. The cost of all this good is estimated at $ 4 billion.

The baby tern living in Sri Lanka looks very touching and sweet. Curious and frightened at the same time, he moved so far from his native pack to explore the surroundings, when a photographer stumbled upon him. Fortunately, not dangerous.
02 november
At night, not only all cats are gray, but the most ordinary things and simple events seem dangerous, mystical and frightening. For example, the Japanese going to work at night and waiting for their ferry in the port of Aomori look ominous. As if waiting … for something sinister.
03 November
The water sorceress transforms reflections … into amazing performances. There are a million such photographs in the world, which show how miraculously water plays with what is reflected on its surface. Sometimes it scares, sometimes pleases, inspires, amuses, makes you laugh. Such unedited images prove how unexpectedly water can behave under certain circumstances.
04 November
The red-billed weaver, also called the African sparrow, is considered the most common bird in the world. It is believed that several hundred million individuals of this species live on Earth, one of the features of which is to gather in huge flocks. Such a flock flew to the watering hole just at the time when the African elephant came to drink water.
