Some varieties of chameleon—such as the Smith's dwarf chameleon—use their color-changing ability to blend in with their surroundings, as an effective form of camouflage.[11]
I know the effect isn't as impressive as the one in the gif, but still.
 
Took me less than 5 seconds for each picture to find the cats.
I guess I can see how plebs in the gaming side of the forum claim they can't see screen tearing/upscaling blur etc.

People need glasses.

The F-117 Stealth Fighter was retired in 2008. This is a pic an F-117 refueling on its last flight. Sorry for picture size. I'm posting from my iPad.

so I woke up at 5:30am to photograph a thunderstorm that rolled in. We don't usually get them in the morning but it's been so hot recently that the conditions are perfect all times of the day. Here's what I got:

Randow (but cool) pictures found on the net (sorry if repost) :

This is the American Star wreck off the coast of Fuerteventura right? My boyfriend and I were out there 2 years ago and were really excited to go see this. Imagine our disappointment after hiring a jeep and driving across the island to see this

Not so impressive. I hear it's completely gone now.

I didn't have any respect for lightning until I got stuck holding bundle of fluorescent light bulbs in a parking lot in the middle of a storm a couple of years back.

Awesome pictures, though!

Thanks :D

Don't get me wrong though, I've got loads of respect for this stuff. I've been through a hurricane before, a tornado outbreak, big hail, etc. so I know just how bad things can be. I like to think I know what I'm doing since I'm pretty experienced (although even with experience, anything can happen)

but let me guess, the bulbs were lighting up and it was pretty frightening?
