User blog comment:Mr. Pengy/What is the most beautiful thing you've ever seen?/@comment-2007196-20120208195914

I think what makes a beautiful thing stand out above other equally beautiful things is the importance we assign to it, the sounds around the area you were in when you saw it, and how you were feeling when you saw it.

That being said, the most beautiful thing I can think of at the moment would be the view from my current residence at night. You can see the city down below, all the lights gleaming from various businesses, plus all is quiet save for the cool wind drifting by. It's more spectacular when you actually see it than when I describe it.
