A sight So Full Of Beauty And Reverence

Image
Spring is here! This image is a former waste water treatment field and it's called  "tricky field", situated in Berlin, Germany. These fields were once used for filtering waste water but there they are a sight for sore eyes and nature lovers. These trees, however reducing in numbers but nonetheless, give a breathtaking view in spring season. The “Berlin Rieselfelder” were created by James Hobrecht at the end of the 19th century for the purification of Berlin's wastewater.  Today, all of the trickle fields are out of order, but in 1928 around 10,000 hectares were used for wastewater treatment.  Wastewater treatment plants have now taken over the tasks of the trickle fields, which existed not only in Berlin, but throughout Germany. So lets celebrate spring and save water for the next generation.

The Passage Of Heaven

Cumberland's Coastal Forest, Georgia, USA  Cumberland Island, Georgia, USA is rich in natural resources. Here you can find miles of unspoiled beaches, marine forests, and the remains of early island residents.  In the 1880s, Thomas Carnegie, the younger brother of steel king Andrew Carnegie, built the Dungeness mansion on the island, but now only ruins remain.  On Cumberland, you can also see herds of wild horses grazing near the ruins, the picture is very peaceful.
