The natural landscape is the ultimate art. I think Ansel Adams saw this. The natural landscape should not be confused with natural landscaping. The latter is man made. The natural landscape should not be confused with the species' forest (plural possessive). Yes, both are natural, but the latter is "owned" by all the other native plants, animals, fungi and soil microbes which have occupied that place. It is very difficult for artist to depict the species' forest. It has to do with the conviction that the land is not ours. --- from the Deep Woods of the Species' Forest, Conway, Massachusetts
