Post the most inspiring photo of natural beauty you can find.
Beauty reminds us that there is so much more to life than traffic jams, deadlines, balancing checkbooks, and buying new toys.

Sure, but no porn. There are already several threads in other forums for those photos.

Those flowers are the naked genitalia of those plants. Isn't that enough for you?
By the way Veritas, those are beautiful. Almost as beautiful as you. That's subjective of course.

The sky is like an ever-changing painting. Masterpieces are created in minutes, and vanish just as quickly... 

And here are some of the most beautiful creatures in the universe...

Oregon Beauty. (I took this from an old thread)

 Great photography
Check out this link for more pictures from the same photographer who took the last picture. http://www.darlynemurawski.com/gallery.html
-------------------- "People living deeply have no fear of death." "Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love." "Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings."

Now, before everyone gets in a huff, I have a point to make. While frogs and rainbows, tigers and beaches are all wonderful, I think there is Beauty in this picture. Just as the picture of a flower is beautiful beacuse of its vibrant colors, simplicity, and natural existence, the beauty of gore/violence/etc has its own cognition via experience. We can experience an enormous span of thousands and thousands of emotions which can overwhelm us in many ways, and to ignore those emotions, or censor your perception and tag an integral part of life as "Bad" is just self-delusion.
This picture portrays how fragile life is, as well as the power of consciously deciding to exist in the carnal/tangible universe or not. That is a picture of someone with such a strong conviction regarding the hopelessness of mortal living that they could exact such precise and (seemingly) final actions.
That is proof of ultimate freedom. That is just as beautiful as a rainbow shining on a frogs ass.
