A series of panoramic landscape photographs by Turkish film director Nuri Bilge Ceylan are going on show in London.
But climb it does - just short of a lung-sapping five kilometres (three miles) above sea level, where even the internal combustion engine is forced to toil and splutter. Then it pauses for a while on the snow-flecked crest of the Andes before pitching - like a giant white knuckle ride - into the abyss. The road from Bolivia's main city, La Paz, to a region known as the Yungas was built by Paraguay
We asked for photos of bizarre bike lanes. Peter Owens, who runs Warrington Cycle Campaign's tongue-in-cheek Facility of the Month site, says this is a personal favourite. Richard Lewis, of Middleborough, says: "The cyclist is on the road where motorists can see him, not the cycle lane where he'd have to give way to trees."

A Western businessman who has had the rare chance to travel throughout North Korea has sent these images of daily life to the BBC News website.

An unusual clash between a 6-foot (1.8m) alligator and a 13-foot (3.9m) python has left two of the deadliest predators dead in Florida's swamps. The Burmese python tried to swallow its fearsome rival whole but then exploded. The remains of the two giant reptiles were found by astonished rangers in the Everglades National Park. The rangers say the find suggests that non-native Burmese pythons might
Scientists say they have been able to monitor people's thoughts via scans of their brains. Teams at University College London and University of California in LA could tell what images people were looking at or what sounds they were listening to. The US team say their study proves brain scans do relate to brain cell electrical activity. The UK team say such research might help paralysed people comm
