    This piece of music exemplifies the Sublime for me, because of the changes in dynamics, the strong beat, and the voices singing in the back. Whenever I hear this, I get an adrenaline rush, and feel stronger. This captures the idea of powerful beauty that is associated with the sublime.
    {sublimep.jpg} In "Scudding Clouds" by Caspar Friedrich, the Sublime is shown by the sheer size of the things in the painting. At first, the mountains draw the attentions with their size, but they will never be able to compete with the clouds and sky when it comes to size and beauty. I like how Friedrich paints this with 4 layers: Forest, Plains, Mountain, and Sky. This makes each of them look sublime, but all together the sublimity is off the charts.

    {stormy_sea_lighthouse.jpg} "Stormy Sea with Lighthouse" by Karl Blechen shows the power of the sea, along with the beautiful image of a ray of sun falling upon a lighthouse. From the point of view we have, one wants to get to the lighthouse in all its splendor, but the power of the ocean is stopping them.

    {lightning_sublime.jpg} This photo of a lightning strike depicts the dangerous part of the Sublime well. The lighting is very beautiful, and the purple sky adds to the powerful aure of the lightning, but one looks at this pisture with the knowledge that the lighting is a deadly part of nature.

    {mmsublime.jpg} This photograph shows a mountain range shrouded in mist. This portrays the sublime by showing the mystery of nature. "What lies beneath the fog?" "How high are these mountains?" These questions are left unanswered, adding to the awed feeling one gets from looking at these mountains.

    {saharasublime.jpg} This picture from the Sahara Desert depicts the Sublime very well in how the sand dune in the front completely dwarfs the human, and the whole dune cannot even be seen within the camera range! The other dunes in the background also show how the desert stretches on and on and on, another example of nature's power.
