Happy Earth Day: Scenes from my Favorite Planet
The definition of “beauty” is subjective, but however you define it, natural beauty surrounds us. I became a photographer, and created this blog, to share the beauty that resonates with me. Not just visual beauty, but also the natural processes responsible for the things I find beautiful. Thanks for viewing, and Happy Earth Day to you!

Thanks, Gail!
Fabulous collection, Gary! Just back from Yosemite and the water was rushing. It was wonderful. Happy Earth Day! 🌎
Thank you, Jane! I was in Yosemite 2 weeks ago and go back on Sunday, fingers crossed for dogwood. 😊
I found a few open blooms…you should be in great shape by then. 🙂
