Exposaroonie Challenge: Lovin' Nature

This week's Exposaroonie Challenge is the softer side of nature, in light of the recent earthquake tragedy in China, we need to be reminded that nature is also powerful in gorgeous ways. The same nature that has to power to bring a country to its knees in sorrow, loss, and fear can be the wind that rustles a child's hair, the sun that brings a smile to our face, and the tree that provides a haven of shade. Nature is good for our soul, we cannot forget.

So, camera in hand, on a perfect day - nothing is more beautiful than blue sky, a few white clouds, and the green of plants and trees. Here are a few of my favorite pictures. (You know, besides my dorky tree hugger picture.)

Could the sky *be* any more blue?

I love how the beams of the sun illuminate the cloud, and the balance of the tree here.

I have no idea what this plant is, but it's so fun! It reminds me of something from Dr. Suess.

Symmetry in nature.

Too perfect, really.

Tough decisions.

So which one did I chose? Come on over to Exposaroonie and find out!
