April 22, 2014 – Happy Earth Day from the White Mountains of New Hampshire USA! Earth Day is an annual day founded by US Senator Gaylord Nelson in 1970. Many consider Earth Day to be the birth of the modern environmental movement. The purpose of this day is to celebrate and create awareness for the environment. If you have never heard of Earth Day you can read up on the history and importance of Earth Day here,
I use photography to create awareness for the environment and think Earth Day is an excellent educational tool because it focuses on teaching environmental stewardship to all generations. And I love the fact that schools across the world participate in Earth Day. Read about how you can get your school involved here.
Take some time off today and explore the forest or mountain landscape in your area. Rumor has it mountain air is good for the soul and has unexplained healing powers. If you can not get away from the computer you can view images of the White Mountains landscape here.
All of the above images can be licensed for publications by clicking on the image you are interested in, and you can see more images of New Hampshire here.
Happy image making..
