Here’s a section where some of the pics that get sent in should live. If there’s any kind of background story to the pic, we’ll write it up, otherwise it is what it is …

Travel broadens the mind and opens the eyes. Where else but India would grandma feed the local indigent rodents, with the grandkids calmly looking on. In any western country the army would be called out to handle this. Thanks Steve J for the shot.

In Norway and north of the Arctic Circle, it’s dark in winter and light in summer. In winter you drink and try to forget how depressed you’re becoming. And in summer you go fishing in a little boat and try to forget that there are bloody months of winter just around the corner.

In the parlance of the motor trade, this Hilux is suffering what is known as “light roll-over damage”. To the owner it means that the car is rooted but to the car guys, a bit of bog , a ball peen hammer and a trip to the spray booth will have it looking like new. “What roll-over?”

With a rope and some rock shoes ....

The following shots were taken by photographer Hans van de Vorst at the Grand Canyon, Arizona. The descriptions are his own and the identity of the photographer in the photos is unknown.

“I was simply stunned seeing this guy standing on this solitary rock in the Grand Canyon. The canyon's depth is 900 meters here and the rock on the right is next to the canyon and safe.

Watching this guy in his thongs, with a camera and a tripod, I asked myself 3 questions:

1. How did he get to that rock?

2. Why not take that sunset picture on the rock to the right, which is perfectly safe?

3. How will he get back?

After the sun set behind the canyon's horizon he packed his things (having only one hand available) and prepared himself for the jump. This took about 2 minutes.

At that point he had the full attention of the crowd.

After that, he jumped ...

Gracefully .....

You can see that the adjacent rock is higher, so he tried to land lower, which is quite steep and tried to use his one hand to grab the rock.

Look carefully at him. He has a camera, a tripod and also a plastic bag, all on his shoulder or in his left hand. Only his right hand is available to grab the rock and counteract the weight of his stuff.

He lands low and both his right hand and right foot slip away... At that moment I take this shot.

He pushes his body against the rock, waits a few seconds, throws his stuff on to the top, climbs up and walks away……….".
