The glory of Nature
|
In the last week there have been two tornados in the Toronto, Canada area, an earthquake in Virginia, USA that was felt from Atlanta to Central Canada, and now a hurricane has pummelled the Caribbean and is making itself felt along the Eastern Seaboard of the United States. This is on top of a spring marked by tornados in the Midwest that killed 141 in Joplin, Missouri and caused billions of dollars of damage across the central and southern States. The summer brought flooding in Mississippi and the Midwest, while heat waves and wild fires raged in the Western States and across Canada.
Mother Nature, it appears, has been having some bad mood swings.
Yes, it can be ruthless but it is important to remember all the beauty that there is in our natural world. The artists on iCraftGifts.com have created wonderful paintings, photos and prints that celebrate the loveliness of our natural surroundings; exquisite landscapes that are a joy to behold.
