I don't know who she is. People should always post descriptions.

I'm ashamed to admit it, but I don't remember her name. She's a famous Nobel Peace Prize winner who's been fighting for democracy in Myanmar against a brutally repressive military regime. She's recently been freed from decades of house arrest and was successfully able to run for office representing her party.
An Syu Ki is her name, I think.
Edit:
Aung San Suu Kyi
Woah, this is literally a 5 minute ride away from where I live. Never thought I'd see it on here. I've climbed up the walls in the building next to it but I wouldn't dare climb up that tower.

Thanks for the appreciation
and no pic but I want to share the 720p version of the awesome BBC Planet Earth "trailer":
http://vimeo.com/23494216
It's a must watch if you don't know it already. Some of the best scenes of the PE series perfectly cut to match the song Hoppípolla by Sigur Rós.
Never found a good quality version before

Awesome, but after all your efforts, the bitrate seems pretty damn low. Was it higher quality when you downloaded it? Such visuals need moar bitrates.

Oh, just to be clear, I'm not the guy who uploaded the video, I just linked it here
and yeah I noticed the bitrate...
though still miles better than the shitty youtube upload I only knew before hehe.

This is probably the fifth time I've opened this thread believing it was the funny pics thread and went "huh..." before realizing I was in the wrong thread.
Oh, and a picture (shamelessly stolen from Reddit)

Ohhh sorry, I assumed incorrectly. And I totally missed that download button! Will try it, thanksOh, just to be clear, I'm not the guy who uploaded the video, I just linked it here
and yeah I noticed the bitrate... when you choose to download the HD version it seems to be a bit better. So maybe it's also in part due to the stream.

If you live in the NYC area go on the 6 train and stay on after the last stop, you will see this abandoned area.
Great thread, I never bothered looking in here before... Well I surely regret that now! When I find great pictures I will post them for sure.
I decided to create a Tumblr where I dump all the cool pictures I come across, just as a 'personal' archive instead of saving each image. Almost all pictures are via Neogaf so far. Thank you for the amazing pictures GAF!

Awesome picture.
I know it's horribly pedantic, but what is the light source in the sky?

The sun, duh.
The newspaper, right there, in the sky.
If you believe the moon is that small and can go to earth and still shine like that, why not a flying gigantic newspaper being the light source ? xD

I hesitate to call it "cool" but it's certainly interesting.
