For the October [livejournal.com profile] picspammy challenge:
I think most of my flisters are sort of aware that I have a certain fondness for marine animals because they are undoubtedly cool. I love learning about them and I really enjoy the visuals as well. :D I They can be so diverse in appearance and habits, ranging from bizarre to elegant, from adorable to terrifying, from comedic to graceful. They never fail to amaze me. They can be highly intelligent and specialized organisms and they provide many an insight on our own nature and its origins. They are just plain awesome. I've been collecting many pictures on my hard drive but this picspam finally lets me put them to use. XD


- While this picspam gives you many reasons to appreciate marine animals and other organisms, I highly suggest you check them out in action by watching the BBC/Discovery Planet Earth series for Shallow Seas and Oceans Deep (from which I've capped many of the pictures) because it just takes the beauty of these ecosystems to a whole another level (if you can, watch it in HD!).
- Please don't use these picture for graphic-making

Beautiful picspam!
I'm not really into watching documentaries in general but every time I end up watching one, I'm in awe at the beauty of it.

YES! I love this picspam a lot. :))
I always wanted to be a marine biologist, and maybe if I survive my Biology undergrad course I might actually get to become one.

I am in totally agreement on the awesomeness of marine life (from a safe distance) and consider this to be one of the most beautiful picspams I'm yet to see. :) I'll be showing this to my Dad at some stage - he's really into scuba diving.

This is a wonderful picspam - I'm continually amazed at how modern cameras can capture the weird and wonderful creatures in nature. And this gives me further incentive to bit the bullet and but Planet Earth - something I've been dithering about for ages :)

I love the sea! Do you scuba dive? It's a great way to see marine life apparently (I'm going to start learning in the next few months ;))

Boy howdy do I LOOOOVE me some marine wildlife. I am especially glad to see the kelp -- beyond being beautiful and crucial ecosystem components, they are just really, really cool, like aliens are cool. I think they're miraculous, myself. And Planet Earth is one of my favourite DVD sets in quite some time.

this is lovely! Since watching the trailer for 'Sharkwater' I've been a fan of Sharks, but the ocean and everything in it always fascinated me, so \o/

Also, on a random side note: I use the same moodtheme, cause Nature is fucking awesome! ^^

Oh my.♥♥
I got the Planet Earth DVD's awhile ago but I'm only finished one disc. Not sure if it's just one compilation or if they've got 234098 ones out there.;)

I love this documentary series! We just watched Oceans Deep yesterday and my Grandma dubbed it disturbing and left. XD
