Pangs (n., PANG)

A sudden, sharp pain, especially a physical one, or the family of hockey broadcaster Darren. Legend has it that the pangs of hunger can be as sticky as duct tape.

Star trails over the Namib desert

Russian photographer Daniel Kordan recently captured some stunning timelapse photos of star trails over the Namib desert (be sure to click through for all the images):

A collection of star trail images I was lucky to make in Namibia this March. Namibia nights are so peaceful and silent - I was happy to enjoy bright stars of milky way while my camera exposed thousands of photos. #Nikon #d850 + 14-24 #nikkor 25 s, f/2.8 iso 4000 each shot (300~700 shots each photo). Locations: #deadvlei #quivertree forest, #sossusdunelodge #spitzkoppe #gitzoinspires Danielkordan.com
