Any Lost fans out there? (Maybe we should start a Lost thread in the forums.) This picture reminds me of Eko’s brother’s plane. Anyway, this gallery is full of cool pictures of Mother Nature taking (back) over. Most are jungle pictures, but there are a couple of others as well – the one of kudzu completely devouring a house in Georgia is interesting.

See all 20 of them at Environmental Graffiti.

The buildings found on the Pachallama peak are in remarkably good condition, estimated to be over 1,000 years old and comprised of the traditional round stone houses built by the Chachapoya, the ‘Cloud Forest People’. [...]

Archaeologist Benedicto Pérez Goicochea said: "The citadel is perched on the edge of an abyss.

"We suspect that the ancient inhabitants used this as a lookout point from where they could spot potential enemies."
