From a collection of aerial photos of New York
(via Coudal)
From the Big Picture (contains some fairly nasty ones of bulls getting stabbed and variously gushing and vomiting blood but also some ones of silly people getting nailed by bulls and one awesome one of a guy jumping over a bull)
Tragic subject matter but such an amazing photo – it almost looks like a painting:
(The Big Picture – #27)
A nice collection of Spring photos over on The Big Picture, including this very cute one of two bear cubs
Medieval ideas about Bears #1:
The bear cub is born as a shapeless and eyeless lump of flesh, which the mother bear shapes into its proper form by licking it (the origin of the expression “to lick into shape”) (link)
