GOVARDHAN
GARDENS VIRTUAL TOUR
|
Welcome
to Govardhan Garden's Virtual Tour!
This
tour is not what many will expect - a
Disneyland-type series of pretty land scape pictures as seen on
countless nature-related web sites. Instead, it is attempting to show
another perspective of ecological farming in the Tropics: a
connection with nature on a deep intellectual and artistic level.
As so
eloquently expressed in a famous song by Robert Nesta Marley, "there's a
natural mystic blowing through the air" - and this is exactly what this
Virtual Tour is attempting to capture.
The
Virtual Tour project is a collaboration of myself and Juanse (Dr. Juan
Ramirez), an avid photographer and nature lover. The main purpose of this
project is to inspire a higher sense of admiration and understanding of
nature, as well as of all those eco farmers in the Tropics who are
trying to create role models of sustainable havens. Our intention is
to let this project grow indefinitely over time.
If you
are a photographer and would like to participate in this project, let me
know. |

Gold or money has
become the standard benchmark of success in our society.
Ironically, the pursuit of this type of temporary wealth has
primarily led to the exploitation of humans, animals, plants and
natural resources in general. view ordering info  |
