April has come and gone so swiftly-for me,anyway. After journeying up to the Copeland Hill area near Brewer earlier today,I noticed that the farm house across the street from the hill was both up for sale and abandoned. Its actually looked this way for some time. People apparently once lived here. But it seems to have been much time since that has been the case. Its of course unknown what the new owners will do to the house to either build or rebuild. Because of the hayed grass and trees around the home? It bought me to mind of the life and death contrasts of Spring-the intermediate period between winter and summer when nature and humanity rebuild themselves. Enjoy these photos,hope you had a wonderful April and hope your looking forward to the May flowers to come.
Earth Day has actually been more of an important event in my own life than Christmas or Independence Day. Because of the majestic natural beauty of America is one of its consistently finer qualities,I've continued to strive throughout life to live more in harmony with it. True the very use of electricity,such as the type that powers the the PC I'm using,is produced often by means that work completely against the planet. But for today's photographs,I wanted to showcase two contrasts I observed on a local nature walk this past Friday: the contrasts between this towns abundance of trees and shrubs and examples of what humanity itself has constructed for its own use-both new and decaying. With no preaching on my end,please allow these photographs to guide your own opinion about the priorities of humanity in regards to the planet. And feel free to comment as to those thoughts. Enjoy!
HAPPY EARTH DAY,WORLD!!!
