Recently, I have been rereading J.B. Jackson. In his Discovering the Vernacular Landscape there is a short chapter titled “Agrophilia, or the Love of Horizontal Places” I am seeing some of the things I have been looking at with a camera. In it he talks about change in the landscape, how aspects of the rural and urban landscapes become obsolete. He says that there is a “culture of environmental change, a pattern of decisions worth exploring” and that he American landscape is a horizontal one, one that is different than the European.
