What? Did you think this post was going to be slightly dodgy with some kind of adult content because of the title? Tsk, tsk, tsk – you guys need to get your mind out of the gutter! Actually, must admit I thought the same thing when I clicked on the link, but was slightly relieved to discover these breathaking images by Urkraine based photographer Oleg Gordienkog. Oleg was the one who gave these images the said title (see it here). It is probably a classic case of ‘lost in translation’ as I’m sure the phrase doesn’t have the same connotation in Ukrainian/ Russian.

Anyway, time to be serious now. I do love how this magnificent tunnel was ‘designed’ to perfection by mother nature. No designer in this world could have a done a better job than this. I think there is something for us to learn here…

    How beautiful! Usually old train tracks are rusty and dilapidated but this…this is wonderfully green and lush! Was it really/solely the work of nature or were humans involved?
