![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/zkFku.jpg) This is a fifty-six-leafed clover, the most ever seen and it is registered in the Guinness Book of Records since the 21th of May 2009. It was bred by farmer Shigeo Obara in Iwate prefecture in Japan. He also held the previous record with 21, and the one before with 18. This man is a former food crop researcher and has been doing research for over fifty years on clovers now, ever since the fascination for the four-leaved specimens struck him. What you see is the result of intensive cross-breeding in order to research the genes responsible for colour, size, leaf number and pattern. Here is the previous record holder (21 leaves) : ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/WEo3f.jpg) | ||

He said that the prisoner killed his officers and their family members. Shooting police officers was a normal war act because they take open part of in the war. Shooting their familys obvious not. Its until today not 100% clear if the victiom was a member of the squad who killed police officers and their family members. The guy who made the photograph backed him up years later tho and regret to publish the photo. However, it was a symbol of how open the warcrimes happen and that noone of the police officers cared about getting filmed by executiong prisoners. He later lived in the usa and never got to curt for his crimes. The statement of the guy i quoted try to justify the execution by belive the claim of the murder without evidence. Possilble warcrimes of prisoners is never an excuse for own warcrimes even if they are gulity, what we will never know in this case. With this kind of mindset you can justify any warcrime ever happend in history. besite that, this picture was discussed in this thread allready | ||

I got them all from the 4chan /hr/ board, the threads are still active: http://boards.4chan.org/hr/res/1508148 http://boards.4chan.org/hr/res/1542807 Be wary because there's a lot of stupid shit on there of course but you can find some really cool stuff too. No idea what the first or third ones are I'm afraid but the second is the is the Super-Kamiokande (full name: Super-Kamioka Neutrino Detection Experiment, abbreviated to Super-K or SK), a neutrino observatory which is under Mount Kamioka near the city of Hida, Gifu Prefecture, Japan. The observatory was designed to search for proton decay, study solar and atmospheric neutrinos, and keep watch for supernovae in the Milky Way Galaxy. The ISS ones are time lapses just watching the stars/lights from the world below go by. | ||

Im pretty sure they are photographs where the shutter was kept open for a very long time thus creating the light streaks effects. Basically a point of light is repeated through a trajectory it was going. Another example of slow shutter photography is this http://www.lapp-pro.de/ | ||

And damn I need to spam it like a crazy mother fucker with Deviant Art pictures and drawings. Please don't. This is a thread for monumental things. Some of the pictures in here truly made my heart drop. The knowledge I have gained from this thread and the subsequent reading I have done is immense. This thread in my opinion is the best thread on tl.net right now. As pretty as pictures of fireworks are, that's all they are they have no grander purpose. I don't mean to come across as a dick. This thread for me is more the subject matter, and the picture is a capturing moment of important human history. This is not a thread for pretty pictures taken with a nice camera. Look at the first pages of this thread. Many of those images are just mind-blowing. Honestly a collage of them would be a good representation of humanity. I would like to keep this thread that way. Rather than just filling it with images for the sake of it. Quality > Quantity. Again, not meaning to sound like a dick at all. Just expressing what I felt this thread represents. | ||
