We live in a world that is often very predictable. We try our best to know what is going to happen over the next few days and weeks of our life, and that is exactly how we like it.

That is where these unique pictures come in. They are objects that are familiar to some, but known to very few people. Fortunately, the Internet is there to help us understand them better.
