This one was a challenge as the background image wasn't the best photo I have ever taken ... it needed a lot of repair.

I've left this one fermenting in my inbox for a while because I wanted to leave you a proper comment on it when I finally had the inspiration and got the chance. For one, I love the picture itself. It's fairly simple on first glance, but there is a great depth to it once you look closer. I don't know whether or not this was intentional, but inside of the teardrop there is a little section where the barren, gray mountains are green and lively looking. That shows that even though that little sparrow, as all of us, is carrying a big burden, there can be some kind of hope if we all try our best to help.
I haven't quite managed to make the shift to being completely green, but it's something I've been working on. I recently replaced all the lightbulbs in my room and bathroom with eco-friendly bulbs, and I've been trying to remember to bring my reuseable bags whenever I go to a store, and pretty much all of my furniture was stolen from people's trash (and it's perfectly good!). Unfortunately, I'm stuck driving everywhere (which I am not a fan of because I just got my license recently and other cars still scare me!) because my area is just not safe to walk around in... for one, it's extremely hot and all of the stores are far away (my neighborhood isn't exactly remote, it's definitely in the suburbs but for a few miles around its just other neighborhoods), and there have also been some rather unsavory characters moving in. I wouldn't want to walk farther than a lap around my neighborhood, honestly. Even doing that is scary sometimes! I'd love to live somewhere one day where I can walk to most places, that way I will get exercise too!
Well, I suppose that's enough of that little rant. I hope that you are doing well!

I have no idea if this will be a finalist in the CoolClimate project, but let's assume the worst. This image belongs in the hands of the families of those who do fight forest fires. So assume the worst and assume this entry for some reason doesn't fit the bill for the judges on the CoolClimate project. If that happens, send me a note and we should brainstorm how to get this wonderful image into the hands of the people who will most certainly be lifted by its sentiments and vision.

Thank you ... it was a labour of love in a lot of ways. I have had a long time passion for the pine forests of my province ... I even wrote poems about them when I was very young. It has been heartbreaking to see the destruction of our forests over the years. This was at least something I could do ... express my feelings in art. And this one is really close to home!
