Farmscape Gallery by Simon Mitchell
Slideshow gallery of beautiful
digital images from around St. Veep near Lostwithiel in Cornwall. Please enjoy this 'little holiday in Cornwall'. This is one of my favourite galleries and shows some of my 'farmscapes'.
The idea of 'farmscapes' came
about from seeing the land in layers. These tall vertical strips are not
a standard image format, but help to show the layered textures in these
images. Textures of sky and field, trees and shadows.
These layers contain lateral
shapes with undulating curves, often with several horizons. This relates
to an ancient sense, still left over from our existence as hunter / gatherers.
Nowhere was safer than a place where you were protected from behind - but
still able to view a large expanse of land with several horizons.
Most of these pictures are from
around St.Veep near Lostwithiel, but to check where an image is taken, please
