Is it normal that i'm easily swept off my feet from these things?

(It's a little long, sorry.) I have an obsession with beautiful pictures, and nature, etc. I google pictures that I find to be beautiful. Examples are, wide open field's that seem never ending with flowers, and hills/mountains. It's like I wish I were there, right in the middle of that same exact field.

I just sit there in front of my computer screen mesmerized. And sometimes I look up pictures of waterfalls, and forests, even old abandoned houses/buildings that just happen to be on beautiful land.

I seriously could sit there for like an hour or more just going through pictures under google of what I believe is beautiful. And oceans, lakes, and ponds with those lily pads... I love them! I sometimes even print the pictures out.

Another time, when I was in kohls with my mom and my sister, they were off looking at clothes, and I walked over to where the pictures were, and saw this BEAUTIFUL picture of the Atlantic Ocean..., I just stopped and stared. I wanted it so badly, but I really had no place to put it. So I never bought it.

And whenever I'm at work, the parking lot is overlooking this really beautiful field with hills(and the grass is so green). It has a house on top, but it's still gorgeous, and sometimes when I get to work a little bit earlier, me and one of my coworkers go outside, sit and talk, and just look out to admire the scenery.

    So few people stop to admire the beauty of landscapes. I know what you mean when you say "It's like I wish I were there" I feel the same way when I look at those photos, that's why I am passionate about becoming a landscape photographer. It is my dream to someday work for National Geographic's traveling the globe taking photos like that!

    I see where you're coming from, and sometimes I end up doing that myself. But jeeze, over an hour of just looking at pics?

    Do something constructive with it. Be a photographer for a magazine etc. That way you could go out and take pictures of nature.

    I love looking at pictures. I do it on a daily basis. I love scenic and old time pics. I really love abandon old houses also really old buildings. You can just get swept away in your thoughts. I would really like to find places like that and take my own pics. If you have an iPod or iPhone there is a awesome app where you can see pictures people post some are truly beautiful. It's called instagram. I post pics on there all the time.

    Of course it's normal... I think similar to you..

    But my idea of beautiful is like the Dark Cemetries with the black clouds and mist in the air..

    Why don't you get a job driving that Google Maps car around. You would be sick of nature after a year of that.
