Different landscape

hello, my first post on this blog, and want to recommend the film 'Manufactured landscapes' (2006). It's a film by Edward Burtynsky, a photografer, his webpage.





We tend to imagine landscape always like natural, so this film shows different spectacular views, that we even can't imagine them existing on our planet. Enjoy!


p.s. I have this film, so if anybody wants, I can give.

  2. Hi Lucjia! Thank you for the link, maybe you can bring the school and we could project it one afternoon, as a sort of get-teogether relax event with a learning side also? I like the aesthectic perspective of Burtynsky works, where the idea of "forbidden pleasure" and the dilemma of attraction/repulsion are very lucid and contemporary ways to approach environmental questions with a clear stance, dinstant from any moralism..
