    Kuroshio Sea.

    Shot at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium in Japan using a Canon 5DMKII with a 28-135mm lens. This is the 2nd largest aquarium tank in the world and it surely does live up to its reputation.

    The main tank called the "Kuroshio Sea" holds 7,500-cubic meters (1,981,290 gallons) of water and features the world's second largest acrylic glass panel, measuring 8.2 meters by 22.5 meters with a thickness of 60 centimeters. Whale sharks and manta rays are kept amongst many other fish species in the main tank.

      
    The music is "Please don't go" by Barcelona.

    Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks in New York City.

    Found this amazing video on Vimeo today. Great video taken by Mike Kobal using a Canon 5D mark ||.

    This year the fireworks moved crosstown to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the exploration of the Hudson River by Henry Hudson. Shot from Hoboken, NJ.

    Feature | Odaiba Gundam.

    So, they built a 1:1 scale replica of the RX-78 to protect Odaiba from the forces of pollution? I don't know. I should really be studying. But this is just amazing. Looks like they built it for the upcoming Gundam summer festival - celebrating the franchise's 30th Anniversary starting in July. This monster is almost a 1:1 scale representation of its anime counterpart, and boasts intricate mechanical details reminiscent of Bandai Master Grade model kits for those in the know (not me). Not to mention that the figure features active light signals and limited animatronic functions. How much money do people have these days. I think we need one in Toronto ;]
