Landscapes, What is landscape? Watch out! Here is a good definition written by Ton Lemaire, a dutch philosopher:
At first glance, the word "landscape" seems to refer exclusively to nature, the rural, even the Arcadian. But on closer inspection it appears that traces of human presence can be found in almost all landscapes: almost everywhere one sees houses, an entire city sometimes or ruins; or else there is a walker, a farmer in the field, a fordable place, or a church tower on the horizon. So I may carefully conclude that indeed every landscape contains something of nature as well as of man. Now when I call all traces of people in the landscape "culture", I come to the conclusion that a landscape is a view of both "nature" and "culture".

Sometimes I design a garden, as I was trained as a spatial designer and worked for decades in that field. Making the world greener!
