This is a very cool site, for kids and adults. I loved going through the photos– it’s called Atmospheric Optics. It’s a site dedicated to the weird phenomenon that go on in the earth’s atmosphere. They have photos from all around the world, and some of the photos are stunning.
This is an example of nacreous clouds, in Iceland. Amazing!
I especially liked the ice halos. I’ve seen them before here, small ones, but I’ve never seen such beautiful and amazing designs as the photographs there. It’s a great site to show the kids.
I’m a married mom with 4 kids. We live in Upstate New York in an old 1855 house with our five pets (yes, five, *sigh*). Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I do freelance writing and blogging. My work and opinions have appeared in Salon.com, USAToday, eHow.com, iMedia.com, the Associated Press and I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.
