From the infinite stretch of the universe, to the microscopic miracle of copper particles -- sometimes making sense of things that are on different scales of magnitude than we are can be hard to imagine. I use scale in the broadest of terms here.
There is a lot to say about being recyclable. There is a lot to say about the Amazon River; its history, discovery, myths, scale, and on and on, but when I was there I saw two things; its raw beauty and its potential. The raw beauty speaks for itself; none of my pictures capture it quite like the one below, taken at sunset, but the potential deserves a bit more of an explanation.
