#FairytaleTuesday 'If trees gushed blood when they were felled, By meddling man & crimson welled, From every gash his axe can give, Would he forebear & let them live?' Words - Mervyn Peake/art Will G Mein 1919. Every tree needlessly felled is a wound for planet Earth.

Standing tall.

In Greek mythology Artemis is the twin sister of Apollo, also goddess of the Moon and in some myths in love with Orion. :)
Pastel pink Moon in the distance, between blue and white clouds. Not tonight's Pink Moon, but last summer's holiday flight.
