Nature after tripping

For years I thought the world was shit so I didn't look for beauty in it Now I know better these days
I also swear that DMT and mushrooms have improved my vision because I had not been looking at the finer details in things or beyond the bumper in front of me my ability to see the full picture and radiance in life was atrophied.
I could not get the camera to focus but it was a really neat looking spider very complex.

I know how you feel. As I have grown up I have been blessed with a growing and widening love of the intricacy of nature. I feel annoying sometimes, but when my wife and I go on walks I can't stop verbalizing how beautiful everything is and how much I appreciate it. I'm especially interested in the smaller goings ons in the woods. The mosses and lichens, mushrooms and beetles, the slugs and the drip drop dew. I've been filling my little digital library with tons of insect, tree, plants., and mushroom pictures. I like to spend time learning about all of it. :]
Stay happy man, nature is a wonderful thing. Do you care for any plants? Like gardening?

I can also relate, definitely. Shrooms and 5-Meo-DMT really stoked my interest in (small-scale) nature and macro photography. It really is like a different world, hidden in plain sight.

I used to go out in nature a lot more before I started working full time. I think I'd like to grow some cacti or something I don't take care of anything right now.

Those are awesome. I cheaped out on my camera  I know what you mean like it's another world. It used to look all alien to me but I've learned quite a bit about mushrooms and stuff they don't all look the same to me anymore 
I've hardly been outside at all lately I miss it. I spent about an hour crying today thinking about how we've lost our home the earth  I think the last time I actually felt anything enough to cry was when I was beat as a kid. I see I've been repressing my emotions for far too long.
The day I took a picture of this I thought at first it was a spec of dust but it was moving odd then when I got closer....


 Looks like a giant mystical beast from some fantasy land the has been saddled



 Deadly but beautiful 

 That's a mushroom the slug is going for!

How great! I loved all of your pictures! Are you familiar with that drooping white ghost plant you shot? I'm quite fond of those flowers.

Very beautiful I found them growing deep in the woods one day. According to wiki Monotropa uniflora
Quote:
Unlike most plants, it is white and does not contain chlorophyll. Instead of generating energy from sunlight, it is parasitic, more specifically a myco-heterotroph. Its hosts are certain fungi that are mycorrhizal with trees, meaning it ultimately gets its energy from photosynthetic trees. Since it is not dependent on sunlight to grow, it can grow in very dark environments as in the understory of dense forest. It is often associated with beech trees.[2] The complex relationship that allows this plant to grow also makes propagation difficult.

I feel you bro...
I tripped hard yesterday and went out walking in the park and just sat under a tree like Buddah and began to bind and fuse with the tree and the environment.
I then went and just laid face flat on the grass and got all wet and gross in it but I didn't care because I fell in love with mother earth and with nature. There were ants and insects crawling over me but I didn't care.

YES! I used to be sorta phobic of some parts of nature, like the idea of laying in the grass and getting dirty After tripping a few times I came to realize that's where I come from and so what if I get some bugs on me. We're all in these same game together. Even if I were to get killed or something from a bug bit I couldn't blame the bug, what would I do if I woke up as a bug one day?

Great pictures Eggtimer and Land_Crab. I love those small things in nature.
Of course you guys have seen that movie Microcosmos ? It's a must, especially while tripping, no spoken language, just nature's magic. The scene where the slugs dance and make love is unforgettable!
And great spot voodoochild, there at the water's edge. We have lakes where I live, but unfortunately no mountains!
Love, Hanz.

Love, Hanz.
I haven't thanks for the recommendation. The BBC series life can be found on Netflix and has some really awesome shots. I brokethrough on DMT with it in the background holy shit it's like living through evolution.
Wait for these gifs to load guys you'll love them 




I posted some of this stuff in another thread but here it is again. Some of the mathematical beauty that can be found in nature

Eggtimer, what's the title (and author) of that book with the mathematical patterns?
Would like to get it myself!

Plato was alleged at having this outside of his academy
 "Let no one ignorant of geometry enter"
There's stuff that might ruffle some feathers but most of it is cool  Basically instead of turning math and stuff into an abstraction like the education system today books like this try to teach it like it used to be taught. It points out the unseen math you miss everyday and connects the abstract ideas to the concrete world. http://www.amazon.com/Quadrivium-Classical-Liberal-Geometry-Cosmology/dp/0802778135

I do have such a great appreciation of nature, and that was my main reason for taking shrooms/LSD to begin with - to feel more connected to the natural world. Sadly, both psychedelics did not raise or decrease my appreciation for nature at all.
But your pics are wonderful and I'm glad you can appreciate the beautiful things in our world more than I can.

I loved seeing nature on TV, but was blind for it in everyday life. There was a huge disconnect, you know what I mean?
Mushrooms changed all that. <3
As a kid, I was completly in love with forests and grasslands, but that faded when I became older. Psychs brought it back, but in my adult mind it is so much more intense then it ever was!
