One of the most aesthetically pleasing things in nature is the human person. We are one of natures most mystifying creations. We grow inside of each other physically, and then grow with each other mentally. Humans are beautiful beings because we are made from two others. You can see the similarities between a child and their parents, and I find that so interesting. We are all the same, but different.

I find it interesting that you have related the aesthetics of nature to the aesthetics of human. Just as we can appreciate pristine nature, or materialized or handmade structures, we are able to aesthetically appreciate the nature of the human body.
