Confessions of a Teenage Coffee Addict
Well hello there... My name's Kimberly but if you've found me on here, you may call me Kimmie. I'm 19, a high school graduate, and currently attending Northern Arizona University. I was in choir for three years during high school and I sorely miss it. I'm extremely sarcastic and won't have a serious conversation 98.7% of the time. I have an infinite amount of love for my kitty, Hobo. I plan to move to England, Germany, or Italy some day. That's really about all you need to know. Have a beautiful day :)<3

Breathtaking Rainbows Over the World’s Largest Waterfall
At 5,600 feet (or one mile) wide, as high as 354 feet, and with 23 million gallons of water pouring over its edge every minute, Victoria Falls holds the prestigious title as the largest waterfall in the world. To give you an idea of just how big this natural phenomenon is, it’s twice as high as the Niagara Falls and well over twice the width of Niagara’s Horseshoe Falls.
For photographers, this is a must-visit destination, not only because of all the breathtaking views but because you can capture beautiful rainbows there during the day and at night.
Photographer Tom Robinson got the idea for his series titled “Feet First” while sitting on a Brighton beach with his new girlfriend and looking at their feet pointing out to sea. Ever since they’ve continued to document their travels in this way, resulting in a collection of over 90 photos. In 2011 the series took a new twist with the arrival of a third set of feet – their daughter Matilda.

Not many people get to travel to outer space, but here, we can at least see what it looks like from amazing aerial perspectives. Landsat 5, a satellite that observed our planet for more than 29 years in space, will soon be ending it’s mission. Originally set to orbit Earth for three years, the satellite lived well beyond its intended means. But, a recently broken gyroscope has declared the end of the machine’s time in space.
It orbited Earth more than 150,000 times, capturing more than 2.5 million images of our world’s terrain. In honor of the mission’s end, here are a collection of Landsat 5’s best images of our planet. Landsat 7, which has been orbiting Earth since 1999, will remain overhead and Landsat 8 will be launched into space in February 2013.
Abraham Lake has become world famous, especially amongst photographers. The artificial lake, which lies in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies, is home to a rare phenomenon where bubbles get frozen right underneath its surface. They’re often referred to as ice bubbles or frozen bubbles.
What causes this to happen? The plants on the lake bed release methane gas and methane gets frozen once coming close enough to much colder lake surface and they keep stacking up below once the weather gets colder and colder during [the] winter season.
