My photos in this continuing series show our beautiful world. Maybe they’ll encourage viewers to help save it from human carelessness. As I rarely travel in November, this month’s series concentrates on the forest where I live. Those who love the seas or oceans may feel a little left out, so I’ll try to compensate …
