What are your thoughts on this photo and how it is more famous

It's a very comfy photo. Watched a video interviewing the guy who took it. If I remember correctly, he shot it with large format film, and gave it to a stock agency.

He's happy about it, I like it. But its sade that photo can never be taken again, that area has been ripped up and replaced with some sort of farm land I think. Might have been taken in Palouse Oregon.

It wasn't large format, it was a mamiya rz67 I think

>>2979756
Yepp, you're right. My bad. It had been a long time since I viewed the video

It's a vineyard now.

The land is fine.

>>2979773
Yeah, i know the hill is still there, but it will never be an emerald green hill again.

if you can't tell Bliss is of a manufactured landscape already and not just a wild grassy hill you have probably lived in a city your entire life.

It was already a vineyard when this photo was taken. It just wasn't actively producing. Do you not see how clearly trimmed and mowed the grass is? Do you not notice the vineyard debris bunched up around the road?

Nothing irritates me more than "photographers" that can't tell nature from nurture.

I literally live near a bunch of vineyards. That was not a vineyard. There are no vines, and yes I understand thats a groomed hill, but it doesnt look like that anymore

This is what it looks like now, since they tore the grass up and replaced it with a vineyard

Nothing irritates me more than someone that cant tell the difference between a grass field and a vineyard

This is why we take photos though

I never realized the clouds were blown out that badly

did you miss the
>wasn't actively producing
or do you not understand the practice of crop rotation and letting soil rest?

Don't believe me? Load up google earth on the site and roll back to the 80s. Still not a Vineyard yet?

cant watch this photo thinking its a real location

Yeah the patch of dirt in my backyard is also a sunflower patch, I just havent had one growing there in 10 years, its just not actively producing sunflowers (just passively doing it)
