April 22nd: Happy Earth Day 🌎 (though every day is Earth Day)

April 22nd is Earth Day, celebrated since 1970 to demonstrate support for environmental protection and it is kind of a tradition for me to remind you all that though today is the designated date to celebrate our lovely home and planet "every day is Earth day". There is nothing more resilient and magical than the spirit of Nature and we are all part of it. Today and 5th of June ( World Environment Day) are always bookmarked in my calendar and those days I shout out my plea for our only home. Please choose to care.

Today there are a wide range of events coordinated globally with all over more than 200 countries and involving more than a billion people. Those events usually extends for the week to rise awareness of the need of protection of our planet's environmental diversity and constant challenges. The official site is https://www.earthday.org/

Every year it also has a theme and this 2022 is "Invest in your planet" as also the current events of the world and unsafe political climate which highlights once more the need to move on to a green and prosperous future, but it is a good occasion to wonder what we can do even as individual. Sustainability is the path to prosperity and the old models will not work as climate change crisis deepens and obsolete and contaminating ways to obtain energy is used as the invisible strings that makes us puppets subject to the political ambitions of those who still make business of it.

And work for it... every day. Sure it cannot be done overnight... but it was about time we do... we should have done already, long ago.

Some pictures in Mother Nature

I'm always humbled by it...
Feeling I'm part of this "whole" makes me feel big and small at the same time
But so are you... part of this wonderful home

We often forget the privilege of such a gift that we have so often neglected.

And here some of my favourite pictures of myself embodying Mother Nature...

Every Day is Earth Day! Beautifully said! Nice post, as always my friend :). All the best to You!

Thanks always for the kind support and appreciation. I love your photography too. All the best wishes back to you.

Beautiful…
Yes every day people should think and take care of nature… Mother Earth.

Agreed, even individual actions matter, we all can make a change

Yes, wished more people would think like that @yidneth

Happy Earth Day! What a beautiful collection of pictures! You totally look like an Elf Lady. Thank you for sharing this and may be you be blessed in power, dignity, authority and abundance!

Aw thanks, I make fantasy music, so I guess that is part of my persona now, :) too many years dressed like an elf hahah . You can watch / listen to my work at youtube.com/yidneth

Awesome images of the forest. And indeed. We should take care of Earth every day for sure.

Indeed, every day, and already almost late for the task

I found this post via Listnerds, and I must say as a photographer that I love these pics. Really like the costume, the lights, it is just beautiful!

Aww thanks so much, I'm mostly a musician, but I dress up a lot to go into the woods because I usually take the chance to film my videos, until there came a point where even for daily wear my clothing is a bit elven-strange :). I appreciate it. Here some of my music youtube.com/yidneth

As always, I so enjoy all your costumes and dresses. So lovely!

Thank you so much, I think it's pretty obvious I have a weak spot for green LOL

Happy Earth Day Every Day!

From where you buy these amazing dresses, I often wanted to picture myself wearing these beautiful dresses even though I tried to find them in Kharkiv too, but they were not available. Are you coming up with a new music video?

Mother nature has given us so much, probably that is why I still feel alive... I often love to spend my time in nature with Gigi. Both of us are in love with nature...

I have made a special video for Ukraine.
This costume I made myself, just sewing rags and tattered from different fabrics and upcycled clothing :)
Nature is the best therapy... hope you get some place where you can get barefoot and hug a tree, you've been through a lot. Big warm hugs to Gigi (and you). I just saw your other comment about the pansy cape, that is made by some friends at a company called "Costurero Real". They are really pretty clothing and I have luck that they're my friends and sometimes indulge me with a gift. But lots of my clothing is just upcyling. Just attaching a square to your sleeves and you have medieval fluted sleeves, things like that. A simple shawl can do a lot.

Your fashion sense is amazing, I just finished watching the video. I am speechless and my heart is filled with joy as well as tears. Thank you so much for reminding me of the wonderful moments that I have spent in Ukraine.

I had a few nice clothes that I had to leave at home, when I will be settled down, I will start looking into clothes. I really miss those photoshoot moments...

We all need to be aware of our surroundings and take care of them. Thanks for sharing on ListNerds.
