One of the features we don’t have and animals do are claws! They make every animal unique because claws can be different with every spice according to color, shape and size.

A claw is a curved, pointed appendage, found at the end of a toe or finger in most mammals, reptiles, birds. Animals use them for catching their target, digging, climbing trees, self-defense, and grooming as you already know. Animal lovers who have some of these ‘claw pets’ at home such as cats, know that their unique feature can also be used for scratching the hands of the owner too! Scroll down and admire the beauty of the cutest claws we’ve collected to show you how animals can be more perfectly build than humans!

When we are watching the film, we do often forget that most of what we are seeing on the screen is a computer generated graphics. We watch the story. If the story done right, we do believe that all things that surround the actors are real. After all, seeing is believing. Make us believe is the work for a lot of people in the special effects studios.

It takes weeks, months, sometimes years to create certain effects, but thanks to them we can immerse ourselves into the action and became the part of it.

In this post you will see a few scenes from the extremely popular Hollywood blockbusters. First without any special effects applied, and after — the final image you are familiar with.

Have you ever wondered what you can make out of a few sheets of ordinary paper? A letter, a poem, a really long shopping list… As time passes by, people tend to give the well known things a new purpose. Sometimes, with the help from all the muses of creativity, they can make a real masterpiece.

You probably think that the paper is designed for prints and drawings? Think that the most creative thing you can do with it is origami? Think again. Once you take a look at these works your opinion will change forever!

This is very similar to origami. Here the sculptor creates his work by combining pieces of paper in certain way to form a vivid, life-like 3D picture. In this Paradoxoff Planet post we will show you the works of different sculptors so you can compare. We hope this post will give you a better understanding of this expressive and beautiful genre of art!

What to see and what place to visit in Norway? The question is not as simple as it seems to be. It’s just too much wonders for a comparably small country.

Perhaps, every first story about Norway’s landmark starts with the picture of Preikestolen — the Pulpit Rock. Preikestolen is the most well known landmark of Norway, the geodesic signature of the country. And it definitely deserves all that attention. The view that’s opening from the top of the rock is astounding. Not many people have the courage to come to the cliff’s edge and look straight beneath, where two thousand feet down, the vawes of Lysefjorden fjord are splashing.

Trollfjorden or Trollfjord is not so long but very narrow and surrounded by a kilometer high mountains fjord halfway between Bergen and Kirkenes. On a rare picture above you can see cruise ferry named Trollfjord entering the Trollfjorden.

Tønsberg is a small town in the Norway south, in vicinity of the Swedish border. It’s mostly known for its Vikings’ history since the town was founded in the 9th century. Plain air anthropology museum in Tønsberg is very popular.

Numerous more modern fortifications from the various pages of the European history are also attracting a lot of tourists to Tønsberg.

Frognerparken (Frogner Park) and the Vigeland Sculpture Park that resides there are among the most popular attractions of Norwegian capital city Oslo.

Geirangerfjorden (The Geiranger Fjord) is one of the most beautiful fjords of Norway. In the middle of the Geirangerfjord there are two waterfalls facing each other on the opposite walls of the fjord.

Nordkapp (which is translated into English as the North Cape) is the most northern point of Norway and therefore – entire Europe.

The advance of the digital photography in the beginning of the XXI century made everyone and their cats the photographers. All you need to be able say—”I’m photographer”—is to spend some bucks on a digital camera, better the one with more buttons, levers and dials on it.

And what about pets? They are just mimicking their owners in almost any aspect. The photography is not an exception. Many cats are sharing this hobby with their owners.

Tierra del Fuego is a common name for the series of isles in the southernmost end of the South America continent. The name is Spanish, it means “The land of fires”.

Contrary to popular belief, this name wasn’t inspired by the volcanic activity in this region. Indeed, there are plenty of volcanos on the archipelago, the Andean Volcanic Belt starts there. But those fires came from the people who lived there—the Yaghans. When the Spanish explorers first came to the shore of the Strait of Magellan, which is dividing isles from the South American continent, they saw the campfires of Yaghan tribes on the other shore. Thus came a name—Land of Fires.

But first, the land was discover by the famous Ferdinand Magellan, who has found the way from Atlantic Ocean to Pacific and gave it his name.

Today Tierra del Fuego is divided half by half between Argentina and Chile. The climate in this area is pretty rough since it’s not that far from the South Pole. Not much people are living there constantly. There are only two major cities: Ushuaia is on the Argentinian side is counting less than 57 thousands of denizens. This is the southernmost city on Earth.

On the Chilean side of Tierra del Fuego there is a population of 154 thousands Punta Arenas. It is located a little bit more to the north than the Ushuaia. The climate is pretty much the same with the strong winds and freezing temperatures half of the year, in Southern Hemisphere’s Winter. The local Summer doesn’t bring a lot of heat either—no more than 20 degrees centigrade on the hottest days there.

The southernmost city world record is held by Argentina, but the southernmost village is a Chilean one—less than three thousand people live in Puerto Williams constantly, but they are proud to be the people permanently living closer to the South Pole than anyone else.

After the Panama Canal was built more than a hundred years ago, the cargo ships sail from Atlantic to Pacific and back though it saving sometimes almost a month worth of time. Only cruise ships and scientific vessels are sailing through the Strait of Magellan these days. It’s enough to feed the economy of Tierra del Fuego.

Nine months a year the cruise ships spill thousands of tourists attracted to this picturesque lands, with its unique untouched sub polar landscapes.

Most of the area of the largest island of the archipelago — Isla Grande — and most of the smaller isles are protected. Here, on Isla Grande, on the Argentinian side of the isle, you can visit the southernmost National Park in the world. Its waterfalls, rocks and meager landscapes are giving home for surprisingly rich and diverse subantarctic wildlife.

On the Chilean side, in Punta Arenas, you can visit the southernmost museum of natural history. The center of the exposition and the main attraction of which is the full size replica of the Nao Victoria—the ship Ferdinand Magellan circumnavigated the world on five hundreds years ago.
