We build cities to create spaces for living and working, but all of that concrete distances us from the natural world. So, to remind themselves that they're part of something bigger, members of the subreddit 'Nature is Freaking Lit' are sharing pictures from green forests and blue seas. Whether it's a candid snapshot of a snake or a National Geographic-level close-up of an insect, they definitely inspire others to reconnect with the environment.

From the photographer's IG: "This is definitely one of the most memorable shot I have ever taken and also the first image that NG published back in 2016!! This GreenMeteor was captured while taking a time-lapse to document the urbanization around the Skyislands southern in India. The camera was set at 15s exposure for 999 shots and this came into one of those shots. Green Meteor’s greenish color come from a combination of the heating of oxygen around the meteor and the mix of minerals ignited as the rock enters Earth's atmosphere"
