From Lapidim's Flickrstream... some of the most beautiful landscapes I've ever seen. Sometimes the photograph shows a reality that is made from light, line and texture. Other times the beauty is there and the photograph simply testifies to a moment in time when it existed.
I had to post one more...

This photo from Dlemieux's Flickr stream is a great example of a walk by. Find a great background and then wait for your subject.
