This seems like it fits here, as well as seeming it needed to be. A discussion of what is art, in opinion, and of what are your favorites, either intentional, accidental, or natural artistic forms.
To me, art is the world, but upon nature, not always upon our interaction to it. 6 points to a snow flake, and each unique, and only temporary within life. Blowing wind upon the grass, motion upon still life creating awe. Thunder clouds swirling into a form of what we see as death, yet it turns the soil for life to be born again.

There is a chemical in your brain
I really love pictures of nature. I like pictures of people, but the self-poses I don't really consider art, per-say. I enjoy taking pictures, but I only consider a few of them art.
It's pouring sunshine and rain

Art can be anything and everything, it depends on your perspective on things.

I think the soul viberates. Every soul has it's own wavelength and music and art is just a way to spread that wavelength to other people. Wether something is overflowing with feeling or devoid of it, you can feal it through images, sounds and words. art is just to give something of yourself back to the world.

Art..I have a paper I wrote when I was younger -somewhere lost- about art. To me, art is when a unique eye (everyone has their own form-talent knows no limitations) is shared with others, so that they may view things as you; the artist sees them. Your creations are your way of speaking through a different means.
