“There is no Sleepy Hollow on the Internet, no peaceful spot where contemplativeness can work its restorative magic. There is only the endless, mesmerizing buzz of the urban street.” Nicholas Carr, from The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains (New York: Norton, 2010)

Blog 8
The many ways to aesthetically appreciate nature that we have learned in class has given me such a new perspective in this area. So much so that I decided to do my final project on it. I specifically looked into the landscape model, Carlson's natural environmental model, and Foltz's view on spirituality. I applied each of the views to a picture I took of a fortress in Avila, Spain. In conclusion, I decided that there is not one specific correct way to aesthetically appreciate nature. It's all up to the observer and it is his opinion.
