Need help gathering images for exposition

I am planning on doing a series of expositions about design in nature (not intelligent but just dumb mechanistic random design) in a few museums in my city.

The sub-topics I had in mind so far were the following:

1. design in nature

2. symmetry in nature (a bit hard to distinguish from the previous, I know)

3. camouflage

(4. sexual dimorphism)

It's a recently born project, and I am working on the general idea, but what I would need is help getting links of websites where I can find extremely HD images related to those topics, since the idea is to turn those images into gigantografías (I don't know the translation and I'm too tired to look it up).

Thanks in advance and congratulations on the site.

Excellent advice Rusty. Life (and science) is all around you Macedonio, no matter how you slice it, you cannot be separated from it. In other words...Take a look around for yourself, find your own examples, use your own words and publish your own work.

Thanks Rusty and Ficking Chicken:

That's one way to go: the wonderful and legal but long and in the end less interesting for the viewers.

I'll keep searching, however, and ask for permissions to the copyright owners.

Thanks for the tip (I had thought of mandelbrot and julia sets, but I hadn't thought about their ocurrence in nature).

Hello fellow atheists!  I have joined this site in an attempt to find other rational individuals, such as myself, and to promote a current charity drive that I am trying to get going for the Oklahoma tornado victims.  I have managed to get many groups from around my area, including the Beyond Belief Foundation to back me on this endeavor. 

I am located in Newnan, Ga and have my own atheist group entitled "Coweta County Atheists".  I am currently being backed by Spaulding Co.…

Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film video

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:37pm 0 Comments

There is a video of the Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film.  The man isn't demon possessed, there are likely no 'real' demons.  He's just delusional and doesn't want to accept personal responsiblity for his own behavior for his own dysfunctional life.

Do you support 'traditional' marriage, vot now ad

There is an ad that reads ' Do you support 'traditional' marriage? Vote Now"!  .

 

 

No, I don't support 'traditional' marriage because there is no such thing. I support heterosexual and same-sex couples marry each other legally , yes.  'Traditional' marriage promoters largely do not believe that heterosexual women are co-equal to their husbands.  Their only purpose in 'traditional' marriage is to sexually satisfy their husbands if they can and raise children and do all…

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…
