Astronomical Clock
If you've got a Sony Ericsson phone and don't read instruction manuals, you might have a cool panoramic mode on your Camera that you don't know about. You take three shots and after the first, it overlays a half-transparent bit of the first picture so you get the second shot pointing in just the right place. Okay, the 'joins' are a bit wonky here but with the amount of beer drunk on the previous night, it's amazing I could do anything.
Anyway, you can see the Astronomical Clock in Prague on the left of the photo. Strongly recommended. The display on the hour is so underwhelming, you get to see a few hundred tourists wondering to themselves if that really was it. Then they'll start turning to each other, asking if that was it, and if they can go or perhaps hang on, 'cos that can't have been it. I'm afraid that was it.
People of Prague, What the Hell Are You Trying To Tell Us?
If, on the off chance that it's a sign saying it's okay to play football, drive and sledge a house, then I take it back - it's an excellent sign. But then, why they hell is it so randomly spaced? I didn't have OCD until I saw this sign. Why the hell is the car up there if the slegde is on the ground?

M31
I'd like to show you the amazing astrophotography of Bob Fera - specifically an amazing composite image of galaxy M31 - but seeing as it's all copyright you'll just have to make do with this motorway sign.
If that's not good enough, check out his website here, and track down the Andromeda Galaxy. It seems he takes these from his home's observatory or some car park in California.

Heavy Sea
Container ship in heavy sea - the video keeps cutting to a shot below deck, showing the flex the ship is taking which is pretty amazing.
