Here's a photo I took back when we had the Legazpi Tour in the Philippines.

Spoiler:

Title: Caraga Church

Does the theme mean nature only? Because some may consider pictures of cities, buildings, and man mad things as part of 'our beautiful world'. Just wanting to know because I may want to enter :D

Pave Low · Aug 13, 2010

Well, "Our Beautiful World", you just need to try and capture a photo of something that you think fits that theme well. Our second theme (for tomorrow) is supposed to be "Our Polluted World"...

Ho-Oh · Aug 13, 2010

^ Taken about a week or so ago when Pop decided to go for a drive :)

To me, this represents a balance between nature and industry (similar to B/W), showing the beauty of the ocean and the world around it. But yeah, idk, looking at it now I'm not so sure. XD;

Daydream · Aug 13, 2010

It's been rainy and miserable all day(as I'm sure most of you Brits will know), and I have just gotten wet to take this:

Spoiler:

My idea behind it was that you can find a beautiful part of the world even in your own back garden (photo was taken in mine) and even on a day like today. This one flower instantly jumped out at me for some reason. I love the way the rain looks. I'm sure there are some more experienced entries that'll look tons better, but I'm rather proud of this photograph.

XDLugia · Aug 13, 2010

I might as well give this a shot. Doesn't hurt trying something new.

Spoiler:

During my trips to my parent's home country of El Salvador, I was able to take this picture at a beach. I think it looks nice since it shows a balance between the water and the mountains in the background.

Gardenia101 · Aug 13, 2010

I took this one in my backyard, too

Spoiler:

derozio · Aug 13, 2010

Kind of took this a long time ago. W/e, will be posting it here:

Spoiler:

A pretty scene, I guess. The sunlight looks kind of beautiful..idk. Definitely my kind of 'our beautiful world'...or is it? XD;

WolfSoul · Aug 13, 2010

Here's a picture I took not too long ago, I attached it as I wasn't sure if the spoiler here is used with [sp] and [/sp] as other forums. Just tell me if I have to edit the post :)

Er...this I guess. There's a pokemon picture I want to use, so hopefully that's one of the themes. :bandit:

Espeon Master · Aug 13, 2010

Here's my entry

Spoiler:

Taken at Leu Gardens. Sunlight is beautiful. =)

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ · Aug 13, 2010

My entry:

Spoiler:

Photo of a sunset at my parents' house. I resisted the urge to use a photo of a VERY beautiful Quality Suites hotel, BTW.

560cool. · Aug 13, 2010

This was taken when I went to the Carpathian Mountains. Well, if I say Brasov, you won't get it (use Google Maps if you're that curios) but that's what it is.

Spoiler:

Sorry, DSi Quality. ><

digi-kun · Aug 13, 2010

Mmmm, love the theme for the first set. Provides me with lots of pretty pictures I can stare at for hours on end~

I love taking pictures of the sky more than anything, especially rays of light ones, so here's my submission:

Spoiler:

Silver · Aug 13, 2010

Two questions.
First off, I have to process my photo's through Aperture due to shooting in RAW, is this okay? Second off, are we allowed to submit photo's we've taken previously? Or should I go out and take photo's specifically for this?

Kotone · Aug 13, 2010

this is my entry:

Spoiler:

i took this in a special exhibit of jelly fish when i went to this aquarium this past summer[:

bobandbill · Aug 13, 2010

I'm not much of a photographer but this is an excuse to post a pretty picture, so. =p Have a picture of some Polish mountainside! Yay for trips earlier this year.

1. I'm not really sure. But, it probably is.
2. Its okay as long as you took it.

In that case I'll submit one of my personal favorite shots that I think fits the theme.
