Nature is diverse and can behave in so many ways that blow our minds. It could be something as big as a lightning storm or a hurricane, or something as simple as a plant growing through concrete to surprise us. It can destroy and create, and either way nature is a huge and striking power.
Bright Side will show you in this gallery just how powerful nature can be.
