26 Fascinating Nature Studies

— December 26, 2008 — Tech
There are no age or cultural boundaries when it comes to studying nature. It can be done simply by taking a walk through the park, observing insects and plants in different seasons, or even just staring at the sky. 

However, thanks to modern technology, we are able to see nature in ways like never before. Macro, micro, x-ray and slow motion photography have brought us many incredible images of insects and birds. So advanced are some means of capturing nature in action that we can even watch trees mating and see the temperature variations of the sun.

Whatever your personal fascination with nature is, whether its the technological side or the beauty found in nature through photographs, you’re sure to find something you’ll fancy in one of the many great Trend Hunter nature articles below.
