Yaks are the versatile animal of Tibetan plateau -- what camels are to deserts they're to the mountains. They give milk, meat, and mainly transport. They allowed to conquer high passes of Himalayas for traders and travelers.

Suzhou, China
I haven't yet contemplated the impossibility of the view when I noticed a movement in the corner of my eye. I completely froze. I couldn't help it, my brain was about to explode. I wanted yell, I wanted scream. Silent and blunt "Oh my god!" did the job. Ten "wild" horses appeared like an apparition from the mist. For a while I believed I must be dreaming, it was that unreal.
It was a sad and silent moment. The man didn't move. He was returning home from far away, he was returning home but the path wasn't there anymore. Water took his house years ago. So he just stood there looking like a ghost. Or was it a ghost? [Three gorges of Yangtze river, China]

It's a dream of an architect to design a spot where people feel relaxed and natural, a place which supports interaction. They went to great lengths on Federal square in Melbourne and it works well. Yet it is still nothing to compare with some water tanks in India. This is one indeed multipurpose in Thanjavur; people here brush their teeth in the morning, wash themselves, wash their clothes, poop, shop for food, hang around, milk their cows, or just swim...
You must be either lucky or rich to see something, or even to get good light up on the top of 4095 rocky peak of Mount Kinabalu. The weather here changes so fast and the rain can be so intense that you can get a microflood up on the rock.
