Blue Hills Beckon

Welcome to "Blue Hills Beckon", basically a custard of technology, nature, and me.

Okay, I think all of you have seen alien films and seen many locations on earth itself(in the film) that look good enough to be alien. This blog post brings you 5 such places, that are right here on earth, but sure do look ALIEN!

1. Socotra Island
Many of you might remember this picture from a previous post of mine. At that time, I didn't know what it was, nor where it was. But this is at the aforementioned place in the Indian Ocean!

2. Rio Tinto


This the ginormous open-cast mines in Spain. As you see, the water is red down below owing to it's acidic nature(pH of 2), as google results told me.

3. The Spotted Lake - Kliluk

Located in Canada, it's hard not to be awestruck by this one-of-a-kind lake on earth. This happens in summer, as the water evaporates, leaving crystals behind, and thus forming this uniquely beautiful scene.

4. Blood Bath Pond

This Hot Water Spring in Japan is not to be toyed with, well no one would dare to anyways, after seeing how bloodied it is!

If you're wondering, the spring owes it's red colour to the high iron content.

5. Eisriesenwelt Ice Caves

I bet you've been to at least one CAVE in your life, and obviously seen what it is like. And then you must have thought, ice caves can't be that different. This is where you go way wrong!

This Ice Cave, located in Austria, is one of the largest on Earth. Just one glance is enough to spook the hell out of you.

So, that's all for this post, till then, happy Alien-Earth hunting!

I remember reading an article not too long ago about the places one should see before they die. Socotra Island was one of them. These are truly amazing, images!

I've seen the book "1000 places to see b'fore you die"

Would love to see the entire book once. It's really good.
