These abandoned cars (in Châtillon, Belgium) once belonged to American service men. After the war, they were responsible for shipping their vehicles back. Many of them could not afford to do this, so the cars were brought to a clearing in the forest, parked and left there.

From “Anatolian Civilisations”, 1983.
Head of King Antiochus I Theos of Commagene on top of Mount Nemrut. In 62 BC, he built on the mountain top a tomb-sanctuary flanked by huge statues (8–9 m/26–30 ft high) of himself, two lions, two eagles and various Greek, Armenian, and Iranian gods. In 1987, Mount Nemrut was made a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

This brilliantly coloured miniature poison-dart frog may look pretty, but in actual fact possesses enough toxin to kill up to twenty people. Found all along the Caribbean lowlands from Nicaragua to western Panama, nowhere is the frog’s colouration and size as varied as on the lovely Panama island of Isla Bastimentos. #Nature #South America #El Valle #Panama
