Forest Wander

Who doesn’t like beautiful pictures of nature, besides EB? She doesn’t like anything. But really, who doesn’t like looking at beautiful photos of forests, mountains, flowers, wildlife, landscapes, etc.?

This Cloudeight Site Pick features hundreds of high-resolution photos of nature — by category – from Forest Trails, to Mountains, to Wildlife to the unusual. It’s too bad this site’s design isn’t as pretty as its pictures. So when you first see the site don’t run and hide; do take some time to browse through the hundreds of great nature photos. When you find one you really like, click on it and you’ll see the high res version which you can download and muse over or make your desktop wallpaper.

While walking home from work one day singing the song “How Great Thou Art” the second verse from the song spoke to Troy’s heart as he sang “When through the Woods and Forest Glades I Wander”. Then the name for ForestWander Nature Photography was penned…”
