In the eye of the beholder

Beauty, what is beautiful to you? Examples plz. Pictures if you can or video. Tastefully plz don't want this thread locked. Theorize it, intellectualize it. Romanticize it. People, places, things. Whatever just have fun. Nons and other pds welcome to join in.

i know it when i see it. hard to define what mix of color, contrast, texture and surprise works best. takes an artist!







in before the lock!

Ha! No. 3 & 4 I came across before in 'google image' searches, in the past few months (years?). Nice ones!! (although the last is shamelessly photoshopped).

I Lurrrrve Photoshop, brings me a living. U just using it for the wrong purpose I guess. It's to utilize visual arts.

Can u scuba dive in a fishtank??
(gives me all the wrong ideas )

i dont have any of my pictures on a computer so i just googled something with the right dimensions

its not just the looking thats beautiful though, its the whole experience of scuba diving. the way you feel in the water, how you are inside this different world thats completely separate from ours. its simple and beautiful. the sensations, the sights, the way everything moves.
