Nature is always beautiful but every so often, it has a special surprise - or perhaps I'm just in the right frame of mind at that time ...

This is a collection of images taken this morning on the way to record "Crown of Lights" on May 4th 2012 featuring grass, weeds, and water droplets - daily diamonds, as the story goes ...

Meteorites - messengers from the very beginning of the Universe - are wonderful things.

Here is a WonderWorlds gallery of magical meteorites to tune in and enjoy.

A gallery of 21 beautiful quartz textures for wonderworld dreaming or to use as base patterns for textures, backgrounds, or hang them on the wall.

The great creative order is the artist.

There are those who say that crystals have a path and sometimes they meet the right people at the right time. Now I don't know if that is true, but I certainly met my mysterious crystal under strange circumstance.

Q: Do you know what kind of crystal or mineral this is? If you do, please let me know.

A real good time was had by all creating this collection of fantasy crystal photographs - fantasy crystals in many different colors and shapes.

My personal favourites are the two crystal altar images and the crystal sacrifice :-)

A cool selection of metal textures, metal patterns and metal existences - things are simply endlessly beautiful if you look at them the wonderworlds way ... :-)

Based on the White Clouds series of photographs, here is a wonderfully relaxing and de-stressing video to get you daydreaming without having to lie upside down - Cloudz by SFX

Here is a collection of 40 images of sky and white clouds, entitled "Cloudz" and taken by SFX between January and July 2010 from the sky over South East England.

A lovely gallery of cloud images, this collection was used to make the Cloudz video.

Wonderworlds are everywhere if you know *how* to look for them.

In the seemingly most ordinary and mundane there can be stunning beauty and absolute inspiration, an invitation to be joyous and grateful for life and all this life has to offer, if only we were to step inside.

A great collection of delicious rainy day background fills, repeating and seamless of course, for every occasion. From a straight rain window with raindrops to the more abstract and colorful "raindrops in hell" here are moisturising rain and raindrop backgrounds to make websites look cool :-)

Based on the "Rainy Day" photographs by SFX.

Snowflakes are definitely ambassadors from the WonderWorlds. Here are four new galleries with snowflake backgrounds: black snowflakes for that black christmas feel and the goths amongst us; traditional snowflake seamless backgrounds; fantasy snowflake repeating fills for the magical snow princess within; and snowflake "paper" backgrounds for tables with writing in them.

Enjoy!

WonderWorlds are everywhere - it's just a question of taking time to see them.

Here is a collection of magical Rainy Day photographs by StarFields.

This is a collection of photographs entitled Primordial Soup. Beyond their use as pattern prototypes or just to look at as an amusing diversion, the primordial soup collection can be fun to view from the point of view of actually watching evolution in action on a different level, where the ideas of beings to come is taking shape, and all is in flow ...

Relaxation doesn't always have to be OM slow and meditative - rhythmic relaxation can often be even more stress reducing, especially if you're very wound up or angry or frustrated.

Take a trip into the BEAUTIFUL wonderworlds of amber, let movement come to you, let that movement help release stress and tension from your body, softe and flow, relax and enjoy!

We would like to thank Alex Kent for creating a program to convert an image library into individual web pages, and thus saving us from repetitive stress disorder making those html pages by hand. Thank you!

I enjoyed photographing the one piece of amber I had so much, I acquired a whole consignment of raw amber. I put it into a lapidary tumbler but to my great surprise, this amber was full of life!

There were insects, ants, spiders, crabs and all manner of life forms trapped forever inside their timeless amber world - together with air and water bubbles from their time.

True wonderworlds of amber!

Crystals are not these hard, dead rocks - they are dynamic, developing, growing, unfolding their own existence.

A still photograph is perfect in that sense because it freezes a moment in time, and in these images there is a real feeling that after the shutter closed, the crystals rushed on, forwards, fast, and the pictures were lucky shots.
