Nature in Your Sites/Location

For me, there is no greater source of inspiration than nature. I took this photograph on one of my favorite trips (Atillo Lagoons, Ecuador), and it did not represent a major effort to capture so much wonder because it only took the sun to illuminate the earth to present its brilliant color chart without the need for editing. For me, nature is a reminder of why we do what we do, why so much effort is made to reduce carbon emissions, why look for alternative sources: to protect our planet and be able to enjoy its wonders one more day… because it's worth it.
