Earth Day the world’s largest environmental movement, and celebrating its 50th Anniversary. Launched in 1970, the initiative was created to show support for environmental protection. Over the years, the Earth Day Network has garnered the support of 75,000 partners in close to 192 countries. More than 1 billion people participate in various Earth Day environmentally friendly events.
Considering the mess we’ve made of the planet, it’s good to know that on this day people worldwide unite to bring attention to the needs of our shared home.
In celebration of this important day, I wanted to share some images I’ve taken during my travels. Our planet is filled with breathtaking beauty, it is up to us to keep it that way.

I’m no critic or judge of art, but these pictures are beautiful. I just found this blog and “followed” yesterday. I’m very glad I did. I thank you for these.
Hi Vince! What’s most important is not whether it’s “officially” art or not but how you react to an image and I am thrilled that you like my photos. Thank you so much for following. 🙂
Susan, what an excellent post! The photos, like always, are amazing! It was a great idea to post something geared around Earth Day. I was too busy this week and didn’t get a chance to put something together. Maybe, next year! Thanks again for the great photos! Have an awesome Earth Day!

Really nice landscapes!!!
Thanks for the awesome photography but please also share the reality of environment issues through photography to spread awareness among youth.
These are breathtaking photographs! All the beauty that we need in our lives can be found right outside our front doors in nature, and it is important to remember that. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Well said! Thank you for your kind words. 🙂

Hey Jet-
Thank you so much. Means a lot coming from you. :)))
Stunning!!!
Thank you so much!
Wow beautiful photos. I especially like the last one Kenya just mesmerising.
Thank you. I’m really happy that you enjoyed them. 🙂
These photos are like a treat to the eyes! Stunning!
Amazing! I loved in Ghana a few years ago but I missed out on all this beauty!!!
Were you not able to explore while you were there? Where were you located in Ghana?
We were in Accra and my husband was a State Department Diplomat. We did go to Nigeria. But the truth is I did not feel safe. The State Sept hired a gurad and used extreme measures to keep us safe. We even had a panic room. It was the emphasis on safety that freaked me out. Anyway my husband was attacked and almost killed and I had some scary moments as well. TMI? 🙂
Not at all.. I appreciate it that you would share with me. You definitely have a great reason for not exploring. Is your husband ok now?
Yes. We settled in Montana. 🙂
Thank you for sharing your work Susan, you have truly captured the beauty of our planet on your travels and the pictures you share really do inspire me to get my camera out and go exploring!
I couldn’t ask for more Jemma! Share some of your pics with me if you do. Would love to see them, even if it’s in your own backyard. 🙂
Stunning photos, Susan! What magnificent landscapes our planet has 🙂
Earth day is a scam for Commies!
Thanks, Kim! I agree, we’ve got so much and over the years we’ve lost so much. Hopefully humanity will get its act together so that we preserve what we have now.
Agreed, Susan! Places like Namibia and South Africa really got under my skin … nature at her best!
Stunning images and what a great way to celebrate earth day.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Susan, your welcome. I’m enjoying seeing your images.
Wonderful snaps.
Thank you very much!
Fabulous photographs, especially the second last picture titled ‘Cape Town, South Africa’. The colour of the sky and the reflection of the sun in the water is mind blowing. It must be fun to visit so many beautiful places.
It is wonderful to see such beauty in person. I hope I never get over that rush when I see such beauty. Thank you for your kind words about my images. 🙂
awesome photography……
Thank you very very much!
Yay! 😇
🙂
Great stuff!:)
Thank you!!
