This amazing photograph shows a diver in the gap between two tectonic plates. Scuba diver Alex Mustard dove 80 feet into the crevice between North America and Eurasia.

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing the newcomer folk-pop duo Oh Pep! perform twice since returning to Melbourne two weeks ago. They released their first EP on Thursday and I’m in love with it. If you like what you hear and you live in Melbourne, Oh Pep! will be performing for free at Pure Pop Records on Saturday, 22nd September and on the 29th as well. It’s in St. Kilda and well worth a visit!
