New on 500px : A Time Capsule by FrankieWang by FrankieWang

It seems that life has never changed in the last 1,000 years in Bagan. The sun rises and sets the same way, people are working the fields the same way. It’s really a time capsule.

Into The Storm

It was amazing to see how many chasers where out chasing this storm. Literally saw 7 miles of bumper to bumper. I am sure their was a mix between chasers and locals, but still was crazy to see and be in. I got a little break off a side road with no cars when we were watching this cell go over us.

I headed out with Grant Meyer last night despite feeling poorly from some bad food on my return trip up from Peru (I again blame LAX). Socked in for most of the day we decided to give it a shot anyways and for a few pockets in the afternoon were rewarded with some good light on the hills.

While most people stuck to the roadside pullouts Grant and I headed down the hill to get a closer perspective and it payed off. Looking forward to hitting up some other locations now that most areas are popping with green and things are warming up a bit.

500px Editors’ Choice : Break the rules by AndreasJones

I had a few questions on why the sunflowers are facing east.

The phototropic ones only follow the sun for a period. When the sunflower is growing the stem & material is soft and pliable, the unbloomed bud is light and will follow the sun during this phase. However, when the sunflower blooms the sunflower slowly stops growing, instead putting the energy into the seed head. At this point the rest of the sunflower (stem, etc.) starts to solidify, and will eventually solidify facing in an eastwardly direction and the bloom will no longer follow the sun. So, the phototropic ones do follow the sun but only for a time and once bloomed will eventually “freeze” facing in an eastwardly direction.

An animal shelter with the sun rising in the background. It is spring in Denmark but still the snow is here.
