"If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen.”

I love the picture and the quote. Wow, Thoreau.
love the title with the photo, beautiful photo and that quote is really quite profound.
Once again, the quote and the picture combine to make a most profound statement. It's wonderful.
Really gorgeous images from the last few days - well done!
Heartbreaking quote for its dead-on condemnation of mankind's raping, pillaging and plundering of Mother Earth.
beautiful shot Mary....I always love your work
another really beautiful image, though I continue to be in love with that dynamite image in your header!
I sure hope you didn't respond to that spammer ... I always report them.
I think there is a Thoreau quote to fill any situation - he wrote with such wisdom.

"shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen."
Yes, seems most unfair how that works. Why must be fight to save what will save us?
I enjoy the tears of the blossom.
