Yet, this dragonfly decided to rest on the ground. / / “Seemingly indifferent to my proximity, it remained motionless basking in the sun. I approached carefully to appreciate this beautiful individual. The delicate wing pattern is a masterful piece of art. / / “The turquoise and green colours of the dragonfly body gleam like jewels.” / / / =========================================================== / Few may be aware that Dragonflies in Massachussetts, USA are an endangered species listed in the U.S. Endangered Species Act (U.S. ESA). / / All proceeds from the sales of this image of a local Dragonfly will be donated to: / / Massachusetts Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program / / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-— / Carmen, creator of Art for Conservation

The radiant green stood in an enchanting contrast against the warm colours of the flower. / / Then, that pair of whimsical eyes glanced at me straightforwardly and I found it irresistible.” / / / / Artist statement / My photographs are not enhanced; they represent the true nature and colours of the subjects as captured by the lens.

Conservation and Change
by Carmen Mandel-Cesáreo/ / / I created the group “_Art for Cons…
/ / / I created the group Art for Conservation to host compassionate, talented and generous members who support conservation and animal rescue organisations with sales proceeds from their artwork. / / If we want a change, we need to work towards it. No deed is too small, no voice is too weak, no donation is too little, no effort goes in vain. Educating the general public about conservation issues, about species in the brink of extinction, about healthy earth-friendly habits, about animal welfare, about humane wildlife management, about the fragility of eco-systems and about a responsible natural citizenship, sparks ingenuity and fosters new ideas. / / Take a moment to enjoy and be inspired by the splendid art featured in this gallery, learn what the artist conveys through the images and narrative, visit their supported charities and consider purchasing a fine piece of art knowing that you will be aiding a good cause. / / Enter the gallery >here / / Browse the list of conservation organisations supported by the artists in this group to learn about concerning issues round the world >here. / / This group and the list of supported conservation organisations are further promoted by me on the Web through my conservation works. / / Globalisation enables us to act together in a cohesive way unthinkable of time ago. Let us take advantage of this opportunity to generate a positive change. / / / / Thank you / / Carmen / Creator of Art for Conservation / / /

People who know me should be very aware by now that I always say that the beauty of the world is in the small details, that you can find beauty everywhere if you care to search for it, and so on. Consider this Exhibit A to prove my point.
