Our world is full of wonder, you just have to know where to look to find it.
Have you ever wondered what an underground water reservoir looks like? Well, wonder no more. How about a tree after it's been hit by lightning? You're in luck.
Thankfully the internet is large and full of just about anything you can imagine or Google. So if you think the world stinks that everything is so "boring" that's a problem you've created for yourself, because in reality that couldn't be further from the truth.
