“To waste, to destroy our natural resources, to skin and exhaust the land instead of using it so as to increase its usefulness, will result in undermining in the days of our children the very prosperity which we ought by right to hand down to them amplified and developed.”

“And to lose the chance to see frigatebirds soaring in circles above the storm, or a file of pelicans winging their way homeward across the crimson afterglow of the sunset, or a myriad of terns flashing in the bright light of midday as they hover in a shifting maze above the beach — why, the loss is like the loss of a gallery of the masterpieces of the artists of old time.”
~ Theodore Roosevelt
An inspiring collection of images-I didn’t realize that Roosevelt had so much poetry in him.
LOVE!
Stunning! Thank you for these images; since I live in the flat part of Illinois, these images allow me to dream of living in or around so many other special places.
One suggestion: could you identify the location of the pictures you send? I would so like to know where these were so that someday I might be able to visit in person.
Again, thank you for such a beautiful email!

Hi Janie,
Many thanks for your comment! Yes, I tossed and turned about whether to include the locations…for this post, I felt it was a stronger visual story without the added text…I’m sorry to have left you hanging!
Thanks for your input and your support! best, danielle

Beautifully done… yes, serious stewardship of our world needs to be a priority. Some things cannot be replaced. Thank you!
