What are:

+ The most beautiful images you've ever seen?

+ The most beautiful songs you've ever heard?

+ The most beautiful films you've ever watched (for story or for pure aethetics)?

+ The most beautiful books or stories you've ever read?

+ What is the most beautiful place you've ever been/seen?

also, if applicable:

+ What is the most beautiful image you have of yourself?

+ What is the most beautiful thing you have created?

Immerse me in beauty. If you read this, please comment, whether I know you or not. It can be as long or as short as you want, but I compel you to share, and I will definitely watch/read/view these things, and then respond. it does not have to be typical beauty. It can be sad, horrifying, or happy, as long as it is stunning to the senses. I don't mean you favourites, necessarily, just the most beautiful.
