End frame: Taos Gorge, taken in 2007 near Taos, New Mexico by Jack Spencer
It was the fence that confused me. What in the world!? It took me a while to see it as a metaphor. The fence is a guardrail, a human artefact that "protects" us from seeing clearly or even directly interacting with the natural world beyond it. more

On this 300th issue, I decided to take a look back at all of those previous issues to pick out some highlights for you to revisit (if you haven’t already).

Eric Erlenbusch
Based on my experiences, the images which seem to resonate and engage viewers are ones which leave room for the viewer to have their own interpretation of the image. more
Sketching Down in the Bottoms
Here in the forested mountains and limestone farming valleys of eastern West Virginia(US), wooded river and stream bottoms bristle with terrain features, vegetation communities, habitats, ecological dynamics, and natural architectures that I can’t resist. more
