29 Captivating Images That Draw the Eye

Nathan Johnson Published 10/07/2023 in wow

These fun flicks and fascinating photos aren't just interesting, but visually appealing as well.

While photography is a great way to share and learn new information, at its core it is a visual art. Therefore, we've decided to compile 29 fascinating photos that aren't just factual, but engaging for the eye as well. Be it awesome tech, cool nature shots, or unique sporting events, these pleasing pics are picturesque.

For example, while anyone who has traveled on a Boeing 747 jumbo jet will know that it is a massive and majestic beast, a cutout of its fuselage next to people on the ground lends a new and interesting perspective to the totally titanic queen of the skies. Historical photos of Lincoln's top hat and a packed Nebraska stadium also feature, the latter of which set a new record for attendance at a women's sporting event. Additionally, you can see high-quality photos of our solar system. One such image of Pluto lends a new perspective to the outskirts of our solar system, and what the barren environment on its surface must be like.

Just remember that no matter how right it feels or how spherical is looks, Pluto is not a real planet!
