AT THE PRECISE SECOND...

These are remarkable photos taken just ...


... as the bow of a boat encounters a huge wave...




... when the athlete falls into the sand and makes this strange figure...




... when a gun fires and the deflector expels two clouds of smoke...



... when two dogs in a race have all four feet in the air...



... as a water balloon explodes. The balloon disappears and leaves this extraordinary view...
(This is my favorite)




... when a bird shakes off water...
(Is that a head or a small engine?)




... when a whale just decided to surface for air, and in that moment a dolphin passed over it...




... when a salmon swimming upstream jumped into the jaws of a predator...




... as a missile launched its load of explosives, leaving behind a flower of black smoke...



... when lightning struck, letting us see the power of Mother Nature...



... when a jet of water "freezes" and the cascade arches with a matchless perfection...


Humor --

You know what a split second is.  That’s the interval between when the light turns green, and the guy behind you honks.

What do you call a rabbit on the lawn?  A "grass hopper"

  1. I thought the second one was a bear eating a person! The face has the expression of someone being bitten by bear.
