“You may have heard of the Seven Sisters in the sky, but have you heard about the Seven Strong Men on the ground? Located just west of the Ural Mountains, the unusual Manpupuner rock formations are one of the Seven Wonders of Russia. How these ancient 40-meter high pillars formed is yet unknown.

The persistent photographer of this featured image battled rough terrain and uncooperative weather to capture these rugged stone towers in winter at night, being finally successful in February of last year. Utilizing the camera's time delay feature, the photographer holds a flashlight in the foreground near one of the snow-covered pillars. High above, millions of stars shine down, while the band of our Milky Way Galaxy crosses diagonally down from the upper left.”

It looks as tho the galaxy is raining down upon the Seven Strong Men on the ground~~Seven Strong Men~~What is it truly telling us??
How cool is that~~
A little more to go with your excellent post~~
According to SevenWonders.org, local legends say the "pillars were originally a group of giant Samoyeds marching to conquer the Mansi people. Once they laid eyes upon the holy Mansi mountains, the leader dropped his drum with the entire group freezing [into] stone pillars."
While the Seven Strong Men legend is a compelling story, a more scientific explanation for the pillars' creation is that carved from long-term exposure to harsh Arctic winds and ice as a result of their position on a windy hilltop.
I'm hereeeeeeee, do you see me standing next to a strong man?? I'm stronger!!
