After posting my Picture of the Day earlier and reading a few blogs I subscribe to, I got to thinking about the world around me.  One of the Blogs I was reading reflected on “What Makes My Day” and what came to mind was how I enjoy the simple beauty I see all around me everyday, like the heart shaped cactus in my Picture of the Day.  And then another Blog from a few weeks ago came to mind.  It was about “Being a Green Photographer.”  Many moments of reflection followed.

I want to preserve the world around me for others to enjoy for years to come.   How can I achieve this goal, I thought.  One is to implement some of the suggestion in John Huegel’s blog on “Being a Green Photographer”.  Another way is to continue taking pictures to help others see the simple beauty that surrounds us everyday and those pictures that show the wasteful side as well.
