    I Can Spray A Rainbow
    A water truck appears to shower the land with a stunning rainbow in this stunning shot.

    The colourful arc was formed as farmers irrigated their crops near the Everglades National Park in Florida, America.

    Photographer Judd Patterson captured this incredible photograph from the roadside.

    The 29-year-old, from Florida, said: "The water sprayed in to the air creates a fine mist that shows an ever-changing set of rainbows.

    "It's fascinating to see these incredibly vivid colours hanging in the air so close to the road."

    Flowering cherry tree produces pink blossoms on one half and white on the other, Portchester, Hampshire, Britain - 08 May 2010
    A TREE OF TWO HALVES

    A tree of two halves is wowing passers-by in a village in Hampshire after producing both white and pink blossoms.

    One half of the cherry tree in the village of Portchester boasts a profusion of pink petals while the other half has an equally spectacular explosion of white.

    The pink blossoms on the mismatched tree are courtesy of an ornamental Kanzan cherry. Meanwhile, the white is from a native wild cherry variety.

    Typically, fruit and ornamental trees of one variety are grafted onto the rootstock of another.

    In the case of the Kanzan it was grafted onto the rootstock of a hardier native cherry breed in order to help it flourish.

    The rootstock provides the tree with water and nutrients and normally never makes its presence known.

    However, in Portchester both cherry varieties have continued to grow - creating the beautiful hybrid with its spectacular mixture of colour and flowers.

    Paul Johnston, tree officer for Fareham Borough Council, said: "Although grafting often occurs, it is very rare that the results are this spectacular.

    "The root stock of the wild cherry is much more vigorous and if the tree is left unattended it can overwhelm its ornamental host".

    Igloos outside the Arctic Hotel in Ilulissat on Greenland. Ilulissat is a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of the Jacobshavn Glacier or Sermeq Kujalleq which is the largest glacier outside Antarctica. The glacier drains 7% of the Greenland ice sheet and produces enough water from calving icebergs in one day to provide New York with water for 1 year. Climate change has meant the glacier has speeded up and is now one of the fastest glaciers in the world at up to 40 metres per day and is also receeding rapidly
