http://ift.tt/1tgkpRu It is quite amazing if you think about the stars that we photographed here. The light that we saw and that entered our camera sensors were already covering some ridiculous amount of distances where we cant even dream of to cover during our lifetime. What would be the best combination, the celestial body of the milky way being photographed against the remnant of a thousand year old volcano? It is definitely an epic view! I would like to wish Happy Eid Mobarak/Idul Fitri for those who celebrated it. After a full month fasting you all deserve it!
Landscape comprises the visible features of an area of land, including the physical elements of landforms such as (ice-capped) mountains, hills, water bodies such as rivers, lakes, ponds and the sea, living elements of land cover including indigenous vegetation, human elements including different forms of land use, buildings and structures, and transitory elements such as lighting and weather conditions.
Combining both their physical origins and the cultural overlay of human presence, often created over millennia, landscapes reflect the living synthesis of people and place vital to local and national identity. Landscapes, their character and quality, help define the self-image of a region, its sense of place that differentiates it from other regions. It is the dynamic backdrop to people’s lives.
The Earth has a vast range of landscapes including the icy landscapes of polar regions, mountainous landscapes, vast arid desert landscapes, islands and coastal landscapes, densely forested or wooded landscapes including past boreal forests and tropical rainforests, and agricultural landscapes of temperate and tropical regions.
Landscape may be further reviewed under the following specific categories: landscape art, cultural landscape, landscape ecology, landscape planning, landscape assessment and landscape design. The activity that modifies the visible features of an area of land is named Landscaping.
