Untouched, virgin wilderness is perhaps an impossibility on Earth these days. Are there any places that haven’t been touched with acid rain, air pollution or light pollution? Not likely, even if they have never been trammelled by human footsteps. Still, wilderness is an idea worth supporting and fighting for. Pure may only exist in our imagination, but it can have an impact there. What would the silence of machines, the darkness of the night sky,
the darkness of the night sky,
the solitude of a forest mean to you? 
Pure delight or pure dread?

I get this feeling of overwhelming fullness in nature! Sunset starved forever! 🙂
I do think our souls recognize Nature intrinsically. Thank you for your visit and comment, Radhika!
Absolutely! Thank you! 🙂
It’s pure delight when we’re in the mountains of Wyoming each year, Scilla. Lovely shots.

I’d love to see more of Wyoming myself. Thanks, Janet!
Definitely worth our efforts. With everything interrelated, there truly is no place untouched by human activities.
With such an impact, we must be careful and wise. Thank you for your visit!
Pure delight, for sure!
Yea! I’m glad you feel that way! 🙂
