Nature - The Mother Of All Beauty!

Posted by ~Monsterblood~

My first blog, my first feature on a website and I can't wait to show you pictures worthy of praise. I have decided to start off with some awesome photos of nature. Nature is certainly my drug for life, I just love nature to bits, don't you too? Photos like these have always inspired me to appreciate and admire the beauty of nature and to seek and explore the four corners of the world.

Without further ado lets have a look at our top ten list, shall we?

Artist's own comment -
"As I stood on the beach, I watched the wind blow sand across the scene, covering the last remnants of those who had walked before. Soon, their path was covered and their presence forever forgotten."

4. Memories Of Summer

Artist's own comment -
"There's something about the sea and beaches in the autumn. The weather is still not as cold, but everything is so calm and peaceful. The air is clearer, there's no one around but the nature and the calm, crystal sea, daring you to jump in and ruffle it's perfect surface.
It's just you and the memories of summer..."

1. Timeless

Artist's own comment -

"When I first saw a photograph of the karst peaks of Guilin, China thirty years ago, I couldn't believe a landscape like this really existed. The area remained at the top of my 'life list' of places to see since then. When I finally found the opportunity to visit, I wandered alone on the riverbanks and met a cormorant fisherman who showed me his traditional methods. They fish at night and the lantern attracts fish toward the raft so the cormorant can dive in and catch them. The fishermen tie a loose string around the cormorant's neck so they can't swallow it completely, and the men pull out the fish and store them in a basket. This method of fishing has existed for over a thousand years here. I decided to call the image 'Timeless' in honor of the men and their tradition. It is still possible to find the 'old China' if you know where to look."
