The picture shows Sa Foradada Storm by Marc Marco Ripoll, 39, from Mallorca, Spain. The picture was taken at the Viewpoint Sa Foradada between the towns Valldemossa and Dei in Mallorca. He said: ÒI tried many times to catch a good lightning strike behind this rock called Sa Foradada, but every time I tried, the conditions were not so good. I didn't have the moon on the sky to illuminate the scene, or the lightning was too far away. This night I knew that a big storm was approaching Mallorca and all the conditions were perfect. I don't remember if the moon was full, but I remember that it was very big. This was perfect, because the moon was going to illuminate all the land and the sea and gives more colour to the scene. I chose my composition, and I shot many pictures until the storm fell on me. This is one of the pictures I took that night in Sa Foradada. To see the storm and the lightning that night was something amazing.ÓThe 26 finalists for this yearÕs Weather Photographer of the Year have been announced and the public are being invited to vote for their favourite.The Royal Meteorological Society (RMetS), which celebrates its 170th birthday this year, in association with AccuWeather, has put the shortlisted pictures on their website and people can visit photocrowd.com/wpotyvote to vote until September 25.The popular competition, which is now in its fifth year, has attracted entries from around the world.

Photo series showing dogs licking peanut butter off their noses, USA - Jul 2017
*Full story: https://www.rexfeatures.com/nanolink/thm6
A photographer with a love affair for rescue dogs has taken a humorous set of images featuring them with something they love ... peanut butter! Greg Murray's heartwarming 'for the love of peanut butter' photo series takes a simple concept - photographing dogs determined to lick peanut butter off their noses - and produces hilarious results. Ohio-based Greg, 34, has taken nearly 100 photos of dogs to date for the series and, as a rescue animal advocate, he always tries to photograph as many rescues as possible. As such his latest collection all involves pitbull mixes who are former rescue dogs or who are still waiting to be rehomed. Many of them have endured difficult early lives.

Even the participants of the parades didn't escape being soaked with water. The first day of Songkran, the Thai New Year, started with a massive water fight in Chiang Mai, which will last for three days. The tradition comes from pouring a small amount of water on a statue of Buddha, or monks, to receive a blessing in return. Now the blessings flow freely and rather than a small sprinkle of water, can be administered by hose, bucket of even super soaker water pistols. The traditional blessings were also administered during a parade through the city where buddha statues from many of the local temples were doused in water, as were local monks.

Kulwa Lusana, 17, had her hands cut off in 2001. During the attack, she recognized one of the perpetrators: her uncle.
"I didn't feel any pain when they cut my hands off," she claims. "But once they left, the pain became so intense I started screaming uncontrollably."

The Tanzanian Albinos Whose Flesh Is Worth More Than Gold
A photographer has captured the tragic lives of Tanzanian albino children where, according to witchdoctors, their flesh brings luck.
As the African country prepares for its 5th quinquennial election since the restoration of a multi-party system, there is concern that attacks on albinos may increase as people attempt to elect their chosen candidate.
Professional photographer Eric Lafforgue travelled to Tanzania in June (2015) and visited a house run by charity Under The Same Sun in north western Tanzania. In the house in Dar Es Salaam children with albinism live under 24 hour protection.

The 3D street art of Joe and Max, Britain - 08 Mar 2013

For the people of Sweden and Singapore who didn't have the chance to go to the real thing, they had the opportunity for the best view in the house of Kate and Will's wedding. There was even a proposal of marriage on the 'love balcony'. This Picture was displayed for the Visit Britain's 'Great' Campaign - September 6, 2011
Streets Ahead: Amazing 3D Pavement Art
Streets Ahead: Amazing 3D Pavement Art
From Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles escaping from the sewer at London's Southbank to a Royal Wedding in Sweden this stunning 3D street art is probably the best on the planet.
Thanks to skilled British artists Joe Hill and Max Lowry pedestrians have had a whole host of dangers to negotiate as they go about their business.
For the past eight years the talented twosome have brought their 3D art skills to pavements all around the globe - with jaw-dropping results - raging waterfalls, a record-breaking crevasse and the legendary Loch Ness monster.
Since Max tragically passed away in 2010, Joe decided to continue their work, keeping the name 3D Joe and Max in Max's memory.
His latest work includes a giant beanstalk bursting through the pavement to celebrate the release of Jack The Giant Slayer, which opens in cinemas today (March 22), extending The Solaris Building in Singapore by four levels and building a futuristic city for Motorola in London and Barcelona.
Not only do these incredible chalk drawings look realistic by themselves - but when passers-by jump into the scene they take on a life of their own.
Press Officer for 3D Joe and Max, Lucy Pratt said: "We usually use chalk to 'map out' the picture and then use paint after, the illusion is created through a camera lens.
"Sometimes an intricately detailed large-scale drawing can take up to seven days to complete, sometimes longer depending on the weath...

Woman sues former daughter-in-law for selling GBP 228,000 antique Chinese vase that didn't belong to her, Wales - 20 Nov 2011
Manadatory Credit: Photo by Andrew Price / Rex Features (1506815d)
Woman Sues Former Daughter-In-Law Over GBP 228,000 Vase Sale
A woman has sued her former daughter-in-law for selling Chinese vase that didn't belong to her for almost GBP 230,000.
Andrea Calland sold the five-inch tall antiquity two years ago at auction - expecting it to sell for around GBP 500.
She was therefore shocked when it raised a surprising GBP 228,000.
Her former mother-in-law Evelyn Galloway, 74, read about the sale in the local paper and recognised the 18th century vase as belonging to her.
Now, following a two-year court battle a judge has ruled that Miss Calland is entitled to none of the money because the vase was never hers to sell.
The court heard that the 250-year-old decorative vase was looted from the Summer Palace during the Second Opium War of 1860.
It was bought by Mrs Galloway's father, James Alker, a keen art collector, at a sale in Birkenhead, Merseyside, in 1956.
It then passed down the family until Mrs Galloway loaned it to her son, Steven, 50, and his then partner, Miss Calland, in the early 1990s.
When the couple separated in 2001, Miss Calland allegedly refused to hand it back despite being repeatedly asked.
After reading about its sale Mrs Galloway and her son immediately contacted the auctioneers and a solicitor, who managed to stop any cash being paid to Miss Calland.

It then passed down the family until Mrs Galloway loaned it to her son, Steven, 50, and his then partner, Miss Calland, in the early 1990s.
When the couple separated in 2001, Miss Calland allegedly refused to hand it back despite being repeatedly asked.
After reading about its sale Mrs Galloway and her son immediately contacted the auctioneers and a solicitor, who managed to stop any cash being paid to Miss Calland.

Woman Sues Former Daughter-In-Law Over GBP 228,000 Vase Sale
A woman has sued her former daughter-in-law for selling Chinese vase that didn't belong to her for almost GBP 230,000.
Andrea Calland sold the five-inch tall antiquity two years ago at auction - expecting it to sell for around GBP 500.
She was therefore shocked when it raised a surprising GBP 228,000.
Her former mother-in-law Evelyn Galloway, 74, read about the sale in the local paper and recognised the 18th century vase as belonging to her.
Now, following a two-year court battle a judge has ruled that Miss Calland is entitled to none of the money because the vase was never hers to sell.

Sea otter diving for and eating crab, Elkhorn Slough, Moss Landing, California, America - Nov 2011

This sea otter looks like it ate something it didn't like; he's wincing and sticking it tongue out at the same time. The otter has a crab its paws. Detail
Urgh, Too Pinchy! Otter Tackles Crab Lunch
Grabbing a crab lunch can be tricky when you are only blessed with small paws.
This California sea otter looked as if it had eaten something it didn't like as it tackled the pincers.
But the marine mammal knew exactly how to minimise the nasty nips from it's blue crab prey - it simply flipped the alive-and-kicking crustaceans onto their backs.
Photographer Michael Yang spotted the fascinating feeding display at Moss Landing in California on Saturday (12 Nov).
Michael explains: "The sea otter would disappear underwater for up to a minute at a time and come up with one or two crabs.
"It would bite off the legs and chew on the shell to get to the meat inside. The shell must have been hard because I was able to hear the crunching as the otter chewed.
"Unlike with mussels and clams, where sea otters typically use tools such as rocks to break open the shells to get to the meat inside, this sea otter was using only its paws and teeth with the crab.
"It would also rip the top shell of the crab off, using its paws to hold onto the crab's body and teeth to grab onto the top shell. Once this was done, it would have access to the meat inside the body.
"If the otter came up with two crabs, it would float on its back and place one of the crabs on its stomach while dining on the other crab. Since the crabs were still alive (I was able to see the legs of the crabs flailing), the otter would flip the crabs upside down so they would not be able to crawl away.
"Once, a crab was able to right himself and started to crawl back into the water. But just before it reached the edge of the otter's stomach towards freedom, the...

Newborn who didn't breathe for 17 minutes was saved by being put in a 'fridge' for three days, Gosport, Hampshire, Britain - 14 Mar 2011

Ice Ice Baby: Newborn 'Frozen' To Save Her Life
A baby girl who failed to breathe for 17 minutes after birth was miraculously saved when doctors put her in a 'fridge' for three days.
Little Sophie Fleet suffered complications at birth and swallowed fluids which caused a blockage in her airways and starved her brain of oxygen.
It took 17 minutes for her to start breathing on her own and doctors were worried that she might suffer brain damage.
So they decided to lower Sophie's temperature from its normal 98F (37C) to 92F (33.5C) for three days in a bid to stop her brain swelling.
Temperatures this low bring on hypothermia but in controlled conditions can reduce pressure on the brain, allowing it to recover from trauma.
Sophie had to wear a special 'fridge' suit, which was pumped with water to keep her body cool.
Her parents couldn't hold her for six days and had to wait for scans to show the extent of any brain damage.
They say the first few days of her life were like a nightmare.
Dad Cain Fleet, 35, from Gosport, Hampshire, said: "It was really distressing. Sophie wasn't breathing to begin with and so her brain started to swell.
"They whisked her away when she was born and then someone told us that they were cooling her body. We'd never heard of the treatment before.
"Hypothermia is quite dangerous. We were amazed they could use it in a controlled manner to heal. It's incredible.
"The doctors had to work on her for seven hours before we were allowed to see her and it was a further six days before we could hold her.
"Once they had her stable, the specialist explained to us what they had done so we didn't get too panicked by all the machines monitoring her and the tubes going into her.
"They explained that they had to bring her temperature down to 33.5 degrees and put her...
