When we think of beauty in nature, we immediately think of things that dazzle the senses, a mountain, the expanse of the sea, the beauty of a flower. It is merely the perception of these things which gives us pleasure, and this emotional or effective response on our part seems to be crucial to our experience of beauty.
The beauty of nature can have a profound effect upon our senses, those gateways from the outer world to inside us. Whether it results in disbelief in its very existence or feelings such as awe, wonder, or amazement.
But what is it about nature and the entities that make it up that cause us, oftentimes unwillingly, to feel or declare that they are beautiful?

The Milky Way over Norway’s and Northern Europes highest mountain- Galdhøpiggen 2469m 🇳🇴I had to spend the night at 2037 meters above sea level to capture this image. At such high altitude, I felt fairly exposed for rapid weather changes, so I had to really step out of my comfort zone and overcome a bit of fear when I captured this image. When I planned this shot, I had a hypothesis that the higher You go and the colder it gets, the Milky Way would appear much brighter and clearer. I found this to be true. I have never seen the Milky Way like this before. This night is a memory that will stay in my memory for ever.
This image was originally a bakck up time lapse frame from my video Magical Norway 🇳🇴 vimeo.com/240977816 Although I think my Canon 35mm f1.4 MK ii/5d MK4 rendered a better result than this image shot on Samyang 24mm f/1.4 and Canon 6d, this image ain’t that bad either 😉

A pine tree. A sunset. Blue sky. High, white clouds. A reclaimed prairie. A former landfill. Two schools. Athletic fields. Youth practicing American football. Deciduous trees whose leaves are turning. Mineral Point Park, South Yellowstone Drive, Madison, Dane County, Wisconsin, USA, October 16, 2025, 8 minutes before sunset.

Though Winter has been brutally cold and many with more snow than other areas or snow in places that don't get snow, my perception is Wisconsin had a mild Winter so far.
