This is a thread entirely devoted to beauty, and sharing it.
The only rule to this thread is whatever beauty you share is true beauty to yourself, no doubt or humor in the choice.
What's true beauty? I'd guess it's something that overwhelms you so much that it is singularly definable from anything else, whatever that is for you. For some it means giving you life to protect it, for others it's simple crying with joy to see it. Choose wisely.
I chose a very broadly; The Earth. It would be hard to share such a huge thing, and even harder to share it with people who live on it without getting a few laughs at my expense. Happily, A new television series by the BBC called "Planet Earth" has given me the best way possible of sharing it. It gave me such a hugely beautiful view of the world it felt like I was seeing it for the first time in my life. I very rarely cry, but i'll honest admit to tearing up after watching the parts of the documentary that's been released so far. It's just so beautiful I just had to share it, didn't want anyone missing it just because they didn't tune to the right channel. It's given me a new love for the life I have, and the ground I walk on.
The most ambitious factual series ever commissioned by the BBC and a breathtaking exploration of our world.
It's a cinematic documentary, music that flows with every scene, quite perfect for those who hate documentaries.

A few pictures (low res, which do the actually video shame):
Enjoy!
P.S: I'd provide the link to the torrent, but I don't think that's permitted here. Look for it on the web and you shouldn't have a hard time finding the video.
P.P.S: I would of added this to the TV section, but I wanted this thread to not be about the video, but everyones contributions as well (whatever media they may provide).
