An Opportunity to Write About Nature

Welcome to Naturaleza: Writing About Nature

Naturalesa was inspired by the scenic, mysterious, joyful, and wonderful events found in our natural world.  Although humans have been part of the natural world for hundreds of thousands of years, only recently have we realized that we too often have taken it for granted. Individuals like Rachel Carlson, John Muir, John Audubon, and Aldo Leopold have written about nature and have made great strides in bringing its fragility to the minds of others.

Others need to take the opportunity to express our fears, really our doubts that our leaders and businesses really care. This is not a blog about advocacy.  Its one about creating new ways of expressing ourselves in meaningful ways for the good of our natural world.

We seem to be losing our connection with the natural world and its time to tell others who are not exposed to its wonderous appeal. Putting aesthetics and values will never be expressed as well in photographs or videos.  Our current crop of photographers and videographers need the words that express more succinctly their images.
