Beautiful jags Eric. The destruction humans have done to this planet is staggering. As a single individual it is hard to know where to help.

There's a quote I have tucked away somewhere that says, generally, that "only after the last tree has been cut down and the last grass paved with concrete that we realize that we can't eat money". We all need to continue to do our little part to reduce our footprint on this earth and try to leave it a little better.

I hope that all the creations we love to photograph are around for many generations and don't become memories only.
There are so many complicated issues - poverty, hunger, over population, greed, pollution of the air, seas and aquifers,, unintended consequences , just to mention a few. Hard to know where to start as an individual . However, I do hope that each little effort one makes counts for something .
Lovely shots Eric.

Hi Eric...
Beautiful photographs of why our planet needs to be preserved for future generations. I hope that someday future generations will be able to see these wild creatures in their native habitats and not just our photographs.
I'm reminded of Joni Mitchell's lyric:
"Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
'Till it's gone
They paved paradise
And they put up a parking lot."
Thanks
Tom

Well stated Eric. Over 4.5 billion years earth has repeatedly demonstrated that it can heal and it will do so with our help or after we eradicate our selves. I have a strong preference for the first method.

Well said Eric. Neil deGrasse Tyson recently put out a video that also says it well. In case you have not seen it: http://flip.it/01zzYm

Thanks for sharing that...powerful indeed. It is a sad state of affairs and we will all suffer for it.

Thank you to all who commented...we live in a time where every day seems to bring us new challenges, new worries, and an existential threat I have not felt since as a kid in the early 1960s during the Cuban Missle Crisis....yet, there doesn't seem to be a long term plan and what passes as policy seems to be rooted in ideas that might solely impact the bottom line.
I've repeated this quote before and I will continue to many times over.
We are all entitled to our own opinions....we are not entitled to our own facts.
