45 Toxic and Destructive Pics That Are Low-Key Beautiful

Unfortunately, disasters happen and there’s not much you and I can do about them. 

Horrific accidents are also, occasionally unavoidable. So, we have to look on the bright side of the inevitable. Every once in a while, destruction leaves behind really beautiful or cool moments. Oil spills are constantly ruining the oceans' ecosystems, but they’re undeniably cool to look at. The aftermath of wildfires look like witchy, haunted forests from an Oscar-winning film. Even nuclear testing areas have a strange, picturesque charm to them.

If you’re worried about all the chaos in the world, take solace in the fact that some of this awfulness might get a photographer a few upvotes on Reddit.
