Around Azeroth: Demon Fall Canyon

Reader Hexxis sends in this shot from Demon Fall Canyon in Ashenvale. And I think the mysterious floating, glowing daggers may belong near the top of the list of creepiest things in Azeroth. WoWWiki brings us the lore of the place -- this was the site of the battle between Mannoroth and Grom Hellscream, and Mannoroth's weapons remain hovering there.
Do you have a unique shot of Azeroth that you'd like to show off to the rest of the world? Tell us about it by e-mailing aroundazeroth@gmail.com! You can attach a picture file or send us a link to one -- and don't worry about formatting, we'll take care of that part.

I like a lot of these pictures but could I be a bit picky and say these shots are not 'unique' as you could either say that about all shots, therefore devaluing the idea of unique, or say that as most people can go there and take the shot too they're not unique.
I'd say 'interesting' or 'eye watering' or 'rather nice, actually' but not 'unique' :-)

Those aren't daggers, rather a spear with blades at either end (the exact name escapes me at the moment). It was cut in two by Grom's final attack...his axe went right through the weapon, piercing the demon's chest plate and, well, the demon. ;)

This place is holy for orcs. A big battle was there, it's THE battle of the emancipation of the orcs by the hero grom hellscream. So all orcs should visit this place to honor their hero!
Near to Thralls throne in Orgrimmar you can see the chest armor of Mannoroth.
