  • A wide landscape scene of Yosemite Valley in Yosemite National Park, California. It is summer and the various species of trees, including pine, thrive in this wilderness, protected under US conservation laws. The valley is about 8 miles (13 km) long and up to a mile deep, surrounded by high granite summits such as Half Dome, El Capitan, and Cloud's Rest, and densely forested with pines. The entire park covers an area of 761,268 acres (3,080.74 km2) and reaches across the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada mountain chain. Over 3.7 million people visit Yosemite each year: most spend their time in the seven square miles (18 km2) of Yosemite Valley.

  • An artwork showing a background of forest is seen in a London urban street. Tall, straight pine trees in rural woodland, the epitome of freshly scent appear to be an idyllic scene of empty, unsopilt nature. But in the bottom right corner we see the grey slabs of paving stones along with the shodows of anonymous people - passers-by who are walking past this incongruous landscape.

  • Deforestation of pine wood trees on a hillside at Gibbon, in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. Fires on occasion rage through the forest leaving behind burnt and fallen trees which are left to decompose naturally, and to regrow over time. This is how the park is run, leaving nature to take it's natural cause, not intervening with nature.

  • Collapsed roof of a farmer's barn by fallen pines after summer storms in a forest above Badia-Abtei in the Dolomites region of south Tyrol, Italy. The oldest barns in this region are called Tierstaller and follow the same basic design: That of for warmth in the long, hard winters in the mountains and for coolness in the hot summers. But farming has changed dramatically in the Alps. Barns reflect and accompany this transformation. In villages and open landscapes, more and more barns are abandoned, used for other purposes, or falling into disrepair. Contemporary farmers build new barns for stockbreeding, fruit storage, and wine pressing.

  • Gardens at Fontfroide Abbey near Narbonne, France. Fontfroide Abbey is a former Cistercian monastery in France, situated 15 kilometers south-west of Narbonne. It was founded in 1093 by Aimery I, Viscount of Narbonne, but remained poor and obscure, and needed to be refounded by Ermengarde, Viscountess of Narbonne. The abbey fought together with Pope Innocent III against the heretical doctrine of the Cathars who lived in the region. It was dissolved in 1791 in the course of the French Revolution. The premises, which are of very great architectural interest, passed into private hands in 1908, when the artists Gustave and Madeleine Fayet dAndoque bought it to protect the fabric of the buildings from an American collector of sculpture. They restored it over a number of years and used it as a centre for artistic projects. It still remains in private hands. Today it is open to paying guests.

We see the sun shining through pine trees and long shadows stretching through the fresh grass where camping seats and a camp-fire is billowing clouds of smoke, just like in the days of cowboys and indians. The holidaymakers are staying in 17 acres of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, experiencing the peace and tranquillity of tipi and yurt camping in their own private, secluded valley - an ever-increasingly popular holiday adventure that is both green and carbon neutral since they are not using electricity for heating or cars to travel. It is also a stress-free lifestyle, away from the pressures of work and urban life, where travellers can unwind safe in the knowledge they are helping the environment.

  • A typical old French house window and shutters with a curious cat sitting on the ledge in the French town of Gonesse, a town to the north of Paris. The puss sits looking at something close-by, surrounded by drying pine cones and beneath old fashioned lace curtains that have images of cats in their design. The exterior is slightly shabby, with unpainted and rusting features.

  • Initially planted by botanist Joseph Hooker in 1843, by the late 1870s Norfolk pines, eucalyptus, bamboo, and banana trees grew in profusion at the highest point, Green Mountain, creating a tropical cloud forest, 27th May 1997, on Ascension, a small area of approximately 88 km² isolated volcanic island in the equatorial waters of the South Atlantic Ocean, roughly midway between the horn of South America and Africa. It is governed as part of the British Overseas Territory of Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha. Organised settlement of Ascension Island began in 1815, when the British garrisoned it as a precaution after imprisoning Napoleon I on Saint Helena. In January 2016 the UK Government announced that an area around Ascension Island was to become a huge marine reserve, to protect its varied and unique ecosystem, including some of the largest marlin in the world, large populations of green turtle, and the islands own species of frigate bird. With an area of 234,291 square kilometres 90,460 sq mi, slightly more than half of the reserve will be closed to fishing.
