We can’t see wind, only the things it moves. Likewise, we can’t hear wind unless it’s flowing past something that makes it vibrate; this causes it to adopt various sonic guises depending on what it interacts with. Trees provide some of the most common and admired ways for wind to make itself heard. This sound has been termed psithurism (sith-err-iz-um).

 

The naturalist author and founding member of the RSPB, W.H. Hudson, suggests in Birds and Man (1901), that psithurism is salubrious. He describes the sound of wind in the trees as “very restorative” – a mysterious voice which the forest speaks to us, and that to lie or sit thus for an hour at a time listening to the wind is an experience worth going far to seek.

 

The sonic qualities of psithurism seem to smudge the border between music and noise. The American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882) described the sound in “A Day of Sunshine”:

“I hear the wind among the trees

Playing celestial symphonies;

I see the branches downward bent,

Like keys of some great instrument.

In the meadow, cattle graze,

Wind gently passing, a peaceful daze,

Tall grasses sway, wildflowers bloom,

Nature's symphony, a perfect tune.

 

The cattle roam, with carefree might,

Their presence felt, in morning light,

A scene of beauty, a pastoral dream,

The meadow, a tranquil stream.

 

The wind picks up, the grasses dance,

The cattle graze, with a rhythmic prance,

In the meadow, time stands still,

Nature's magic, a soothing thrill.

 

Oh, meadow, you are a haven of peace,

A place of calm, where worries cease,

May you thrive, for all to see,

A precious gift, for you and me.

Pristine nature refers to natural environments that are in their original, undisturbed state, free from human influence and development. These environments may include untouched forests, unspoiled beaches, clear waterways, and other natural habitats that have not been impacted by human activity.

 

Pristine nature is important because it supports biodiversity and provides critical ecosystem services, such as clean air, water, and soil. These natural environments also have significant cultural and aesthetic value, providing opportunities for outdoor recreation, tourism, and scientific research.

 

Unfortunately, pristine nature is becoming increasingly rare due to human activity, including habitat destruction, pollution, and climate change. It is important that we take steps to protect and conserve these environments for future generations to enjoy and benefit from. This may involve creating protected areas, reducing our carbon footprint, and supporting sustainable practices that minimize harm to the natural world.

Far over the misty mountains cold

To dungeons deep and caverns old

We must away, ere break of day

 

Main Beach, Nth Stradbroke Island (Australia), shot during a hill hike in the hinterland. The waves are very plentiful along the extremely long beach, which often has a very good deep water surf to ride (e.g. see 'Riders On The Storm' photos down this page). Enjoy your holidays.

As you walk toward the water,

Sand coats the bottom of your feet.

The smell of the sea salt drawing you closer,.

The view is so beautiful, oh so sweet.

As the waves come crashing in,

Time seems to be standing still.

The sun is shining down on you

As you walk the beach at your will

Before you start on a trip to a mountain peak, you`ll never know how the weather will be when your finaly at the top, so it can be a bit like a Lottery.

 

But sometimes everything is worth it. After 4,5 hours of climbing in steep terrain, this was the prize. A view and scenery that many may not experience in a whole lifetime.

 

Please press Z for Big.

Big Sur is a rugged and mountainous section of the Central Coast of California between Carmel Highlands and San Simeon, where the Santa Lucia Mountains rise abruptly from the Pacific Ocean. It is frequently praised for its dramatic scenery. Big Sur has been called the "longest and most scenic stretch of undeveloped coastline in the contiguous United States," a sublime "national treasure that demands extraordinary procedures to protect it from development" and "one of the most beautiful coastlines anywhere in the world, an isolated stretch of road, mythic in reputation." The stunning views, redwood forests, hiking, beaches, and other recreational opportunities have made Big Sur a popular destination for about 7 million people who live within a day's drive and visitors from across the world. It is among the top 35 tourist destinations world-wide. The region receives about the same number of visitors as Yosemite National Park, but offers only limited bus service, few restrooms, and a narrow two-lane highway along the coast. North-bound traffic during the peak summer season and holiday weekends is often backed up for about 20 miles (32 km) from Big Sur Village to Carmel.

You can walk inside the falls, or above them, they are fantastic and roaring loud

 

Hawaiian sunset peeping from the sea

Smiles and says Aloha to his sweetheart Hawaii

The drowsy islands slumber one by one

Close their sleepy eyelids say goodnight to the sun

Happy Caturday and Earth Day my Flickr friends. Our cats join me in asking us to please clean up our climate before it is too late!

We need to breath in clean air and we can if we do something about it, Where there is a Will there is a Way! Let's put that will to challenge now!

 

With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️

I think that I shall never see

A poem lovely as a tree.

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest

Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast;

A tree that looks at God all day,

And lifts her leafy arms to pray;

A tree that may in Summer wear

A nest of robins in her hair;

Upon whose bosom snow has lain;

Who intimately lives with rain.

 

Poems are made by fools like me,

But only God can make a tree.

By now you all know how important children and their welfare are to me. It may only be a small way, but I feel if I do these works and share other's knowledge and feelings maybe in a small way I can make a difference for the better.

I only erased a couple of wrinkles. and some dirt. I've been working in the patio area, pruning, weeding on hands and knees, and trying to remove creeping wire vine.

I'm tired and a mess.

I don't use makeup, so what you see is what you get.

Big Sur is a rugged stretch of California’s central coast between Carmel and San Simeon. Bordered to the east by the Santa Lucia Mountains and the west by the Pacific Ocean, it’s traversed by narrow, 2-lane State Route 1, known for winding turns, seaside cliffs and views of the often-misty coastline. The sparsely populated region has numerous state parks for hiking, camping and beachcombing.

This was taken near Vail, rain, bright clouds, red rock and green hills....those are 1 million dollar houses scattered in the top of the ridge.

I'm usually surrounded by people, it's wonderful, but I also enjoy being alone. For me, being alone means having my own time, which I can use unhurriedly and do the things I love. Photography is one of those things.

 

We had come to Finnish Lapland after Norway and it was the second night when the sun went down after long nightless night period. I stand on the slopes of the Pallas fells and enjoy the play of colors. By the way, the Pallas fells have the cleanest air in the world, according to research. Maybe that's why I want to come to these fells every year and hope that they keep me young when I get to breathe their clean air and climb their slopes.

Por la mañana temprano, es mi hora favorita para dar un paseo relajante y tomar unas fotos. Las calles están semidesiertas, es un placer andar por la zona centro de la ciudad.

On the right hand side, a waterfall of sorts.

The Canadian Rockies and the Bow River west of Calgary, Alberta, Canada

COME CLOSER......EXPLORE #71....This is part of the stunning coastline at Leeuwin in Western Australia, where the Indian ocean meets the Southern Ocean.....it felt real emotional standing here, and I had forgotten just how emotional until seeing this again!!! Words cant describe how beautiful it was! All feels like a lifetime ago now, when in reality its only about 4 months :o(
