Where man is not, nature is barren

To mark the recent decision to create a South Downs National Park, I've added a series of photos of man-made lines through British natural landscapes to Flickr. Intended as a celebration both of natural environments and straight lines, they include a castle moat, a pitch and putt and a boardwalk.

It would be great to make a significant collection of such photographs from across the country.

  1. Desire lines could be interesting to explore alongside this. I've always felt they're rather poetic man/nature interventions.
