Dia de la Tierra

Chile does quite a bit for Earth Day, and I attended a great photo exhibit on April 22 as part of the festivities. Cristian Jammett's collection is called "Detalles de la Naturaleza" (Details of Nature), and it is all very close-up shots of some really phenomenal natural happenings: bees pollinating, flowers opening, an infant crab stretching, etc. All the photos were taken in the region of Arica. The photos were on display, and there was also a PowerPoint presentation with "What a Wonderful World" playing in the background. It was really moving - a great way to make people stop and appreciate what's around them.
