Beautiful slot canyon formations in Cardiac Canyon, including this one that resembles a howling dog or beast.
Compressors are the heart of every underground coalmine.
During a mine closure, this vital part comes to a halt and the underground mining operation dies, due to a lack of oxygen and compressed air....
The beautiful curves and waves inside Cardiac Canyon (given the name because of the very steep entrance/exit of pure deep sand, which will get your heart rate up very quickly on your way out).
Commonly known as hellebores, the Eurasian genus Helleborus consists of approximately 20 species of herbaceous or evergreen perennial flowering plants in the family Ranunculaceae, within which it gave its name to the tribe of Helleboreae. Despite names such as "winter rose", "Christmas rose" and "Lenten rose", hellebores are not closely related to the rose family (Rosaceae). Many hellebore species are poisonous.
All helleborus plants are toxic, and all parts of the helleborus plant are toxic. Hellebore poisoning is rare, but it does occur. Hellebore plants are usually left alone by animals such as deer and rabbits due to the fact that the leaves of the plant produce poisonous alkaloids, making them distasteful to animals. The poisonous alkaloids have been known to sometimes bother gardeners with sensitive skin.
Poisonings will occur through ingestion or handling. Hellebore plants should not be ingested as poisoning cases are most severe when the plants are eaten. This is especially true when hellebores are eaten in large quantities. Symptoms of ingestion will include: burning of the mouth and throat, salivation, vomiting, abdominal cramping, diarrhea, nervous symptoms, and possibly depression. Consuming large quantities of hellebore plants can be fatal. Toxic cardiac glycosides occur in the roots. High levels of ranunculin and protoanemonin, especially in the leaves and sap, will also contribute to symptoms after ingestion.
Dermatitis may also occur from handling the hellebore plants without protection. This is typically caused by the ranunculin and protoanemonin found on the outside of the plant, including areas such as the leaves, stem, flower, and sap. The poison on the outside of the plant will cause irritation and burning sensations on the skin. When collecting seeds from hellebore plants it is recommended to wait for the pods to dry and shake them out into a container or onto the ground to collect. Attempts to remove the seeds by hand will expose skin to the potent toxins in the sap of the hellebore, which can increase the damage done to the skin. Small or minimal exposure to the toxins should only cause a mild irritation to the skin, and the affliction should only last for a few minutes. If the burning persists or intensifies, it is recommended to wash the affected areas thoroughly to remove the toxins and see a doctor.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
atardecer a 3700 metros, disfrutando del éxtasis de encontrarse.
Vivir lejos de casa no es para todos.
Debes tener un corazón grande, lo suficientemente grande como para empacar todo lo que dejas:
AlegrÃas y dolores, amigos y amores.
Este bagaje cardÃaco late incluso cuando tocas un suelo que no te pertenece o cuando estás acostado en un colchón que no tiene tu forma y una almohada incómoda, y miras al techo preguntándote adónde vas?
Amigos que no son tuyos, una ciudad que no es tuya.
Debes tener un corazón grande, tan grande para hacer cosas nuevas.
Un corazón que a veces teme que otros se hayan olvidado de ti, porque el presente ha tomado el control de sus vidas.
Un gran corazón, pero no demasiado fuerte... y
entonces ahà es donde se detiene.
Está bajo arresto, te confunde y no sabe quién eres.
Asà que te acuestas en el colchón que ahora ha sufrido un poco tu peso, y la almohada es más suave por un lado y te preguntas en quién te estás convirtiendo más aya de preguntarte a donde vas?
Porque cuando te vas, más que moverte hacia un lugar, vas hacia un destino, el tuyo.
Estamos hechos de otra pasta, quien no lo ha vivido no podrá entenderlo...
I'm losing hope
I tell you baby I'm going under
I can't help that you set my soul
On fire living under your command
Can't get enough
My heart is rippling, rolling like thunder
I can't help that I'm laying on the table
While my life is in your hands
You say that you can save me
But it's all part of your plan
But it hurts so good when you cut me open
Taken my heart and made me heartbroken
It's a ghost town here up in my chest
I'm going into cardiac arrest
(Ooh whoa oh) yeah you got me
(Ooh whoa oh) yeah you got me
(Ooh whoa oh) yeah you got me
Going into cardiac arrest

Cardiac Canyon is an amazing, but nearly unknown slot canyon. It features some of the most dramatic desert varnish I've ever photographed, as captured in this image of one of Cardiac's incredible chambers.
It truly reminds me of what Antelope was 20 years ago when you could photograph there for hours (with a tripod) and rarely see another soul.
I'm sure the time will come when Cardiac will be as packed as Antelope is now. Then photographers will look back on these days with a tear in their eyes and reminisce about how great it was before it was loved to death.
Enjoy it while you can!
Cheers,
Jeff

Cardiac surgery operation room
Premiere of the new kind of operation called TAVI - aortic valve replacement without chest opening.
This is two photos fused together, one is a mirrored image of a street dancer in Tampa Florida, and the other is a beautiful broken up sidewalk in Gainesville Florida, and somewhere in between the dancing girl on this sidewalk is a heart, hence the the name Cardiac Avenue 9/7/15

Cardiac Canyon is located in the Navajo Nation, near Page, Arizona. While not as famous as nearby Antelope Canyon, Cardiac Canyon limits visitors to six people per day. At Antelope Canyon, you might find yourself shoulder to shoulder with hundreds of tourists and photographers.

Cardiac:
Vigilante anti-hero. Cardiac's heart has been surgically replaced with a compact beta-particle reactor, which grants Cardiac power. He has the ability to channel beta particles through the neural web of his vibranium-mesh skin into his muscles thereby endowing him with superhuman strength and regeneration, and enhanced speed, agility, reflexes and endurance, and he can channel these particles through external objects (such as his pulse staff and hang glider). He wields his pulse staff which fires concussive force bolts in a distinctive pulse-like energy signature, and rides a beta-propelled stingray hang-glider. His vibranium-mesh skin is also able to stop a couple bullet shots before the beta-particle energy is depleted.
I always thought this guy was pretty cool even though his costume looked a little too electrifying. I'll definitely want to come back to this and perfect him better.

He needs no introduction.
Sin-Eater II (Work in progress)
The second Sin-Eater wielded a heavy assortment of guns, bombs, knives, and rocket launchers, and wore a bulletproof costume.
I'll have to take an official photo of this dude once I get the right accessories together.
Marvel Knights Green Goblin:
It's been a little difficult finding the right parts that suit this version. This is the best i could come up with for now. I may have to get in touch with a custom seller.
Steepness redefined, this hill is aptly named by the locals in Gran Alacant, Spain. Trust me, you wouldn’t want to walking up this in the middle of August when temperatures can hit 34°c
I’ve done it a couple of times and now I’m cured, so I don’t need to relive the experience...on reaching the summit I felt as though my lungs were coming out of my gob!
Oh yeah, this is just the last half of it! There’s an equal but twistier stretch leading up from the beach. Gasp!
