Observing Old Nature
“At twilight, nature is not without loveliness, though perhaps its chief use is to illustrate quotations from the poets.” – Oscar wilde
Picture by Noor Bongers, shot at Sedona, Arizona.
What is Next Nature?
With our attempts to cultivate nature, humankind causes the rising of a next nature, which is wild and unpredictable as ever. Wild systems, genetic surprises, autonomous machinery and splendidly beautiful black flowers. Nature changes along with us.
Discussion
Do we still have natural experiences or are we living in a picture of it? Nice to see the spectators inside the image frame for once.

p.s. A lot of ‘nature becomes culture’ post lately..apparently the examples of ‘culture becomes nature’ are more difficult to pinpoint.?
Noor showed me this picture before, it’s such a surreal image. I still find it hard to believe there was no photoshop involved… nothing beats the real thing! ;o)
so nice u have
