Oftentimes, we tend to focus on the negative side of the world around us, either due to harsh political realities or tragic news from around the globe. And yet, the world continues to be a beautiful place filled with wonder, one that, while greatly explored, has to be experienced first hand in order to understand it.This is why, today, we’ve gathered a few images from around the world for everyone to enjoy. What we can see and create on the internet is also wonderful, but that shouldn’t take away from the time we spend outside; let the following pictures inspire your future journeys.cnx.cmd.push(function() {cnx({playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530",}).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796");});r/picsBulgarian TraditionIn Bulgaria, there is a tradition to don these costumes (known as Babugeri) to ward off evil spirits, with performative dances and seasonal events.r/picsRed & White RoseRoses are artificially tinted all the time, but they also have naturally occurring variants. This is the Osiria, a large rose with red and white petals within it.r/picsSprouting TreeThose may look like roots, yet this tree isn’t upside down. This is something that can happen to some trees where their trunks divide into four, creating this beautiful variant.r/picsRoad to DubaiThis image by Martin Sanchez shows how the roads to Dubai get swallowed up by the desert’s sand almost constantly. The backdrop of the city is framed perfectly.r/picsPrivate CloudAmong the Faroe Islands there’s one in particular, the smallest of them all known as Litla Dimun, that has its own personal cloud due to how weather works in that region.r/picsRainbow AnimalFarm animals are often docile, but that doesn’t mean they’ll pose for a picture. Here, not only has that happened, but the rainbow on the back gives it an interesting finishing touch.r/picsVenice DanceThe streets of Venice are usually crowded, with places only being deserted if a huge production is underway. Yet for this couple, a few raindrops is all it took for them to have an everlasting photo.r/picsSkytree Among TreesThe Tokyo Skytree is one of the most recognizable towers in Japan, so tall when seen from below that it seems it really does touch the heavens. When viewed from Sumida Park, it instead seems like a tree among fellow trees.r/picsCircular DeckThe architectural wonders of the world don’t only involve massive buildings, but also things that a regular homeowner could enjoy. This circular deck is ideal for keeping tabs on every gorgeous detail of this home’s look.r/picsSleeping with the FishesIf you didn’t know, underwater suites are all the rage lately among the wealthy; they give a unique view of the underwater world while keeping one completely dry, comfortable, and amazed.r/picsSunset in ThailandWe all share the same sun, making sunsets wonderful no matter where you are. This one from Thailand is of particular note, due to the mystifying effect of the ‘lines’ in the sky, likely caused by something blocking a bit of sunlight.r/picsMaze HouseHouse designs vary greatly, although the further back you go in history’s timeline, the multiple floored brick building appears more often than not. The multiple balconies and different styles make it seem like something out of Hello Neighbor.r/picsSnow WeddingBeing cold shouldn’t be a reason not to take a cool picture, although this one might be a bit cooler than anticipated. The snow backdrop, however, makes it well worth it.r/picsSiberian HugJust like house cats leave their scent all over our furniture, so do wildcats and large felines do the same on their territories. Here we can appreciate a Siberian tiger ‘hugging’ a tree to leave their mark.r/picsSolar RocketWhile yes, a picture of the sun isn’t exactly showcasing how great and awesome our world is, it is the main celestial body that allows us to be alive. This photo in particular was taken with a solar telescope as a rocket flew by.r/picsOn Top of the WorldIf you climb the top of mount Segla in Northern Norway, you’ll have quite the breathtaking view below. Pair this with the right time of day and a circle-shaped rainbow, and you end up with a view to remember.r/picsPassionflowersSome things don’t need to be far away to be amazing to witness, and this is the case with the three variants shown here of the Passionflower. Their distinct structure makes them beautiful in their own style.r/picsFrozen LeavesIn certain parts of Canada, leaves can freeze over the mud, creating this structure when the soft mud retreats elsewhere.r/picsWings of a DuckDid you know that, for the most part, we never see the full wingspan of ducks? In this lucky picture, at least for Mallard Ducks, their full color can only be appreciated when they go for a landing. Well, landing on water.r/picsKissing RocksIn Bregaglia, Switzerland, there is part of the road shaped by two interconnected rocks. Their perilous look give them their infamy, although the chances of a landslide are slim.The post 20 Cool and Unique Photos of Our Awesome World appeared first on Den of Geek.
