Manufactured Landscapes

Today I wen tot see the film Manufactured Landscapes.  A film about Edward Burtynsky's massive landscape photographs that document man's effect on the lansdscape.

NSTAC, on the same day there is a Guardian (it's a newspaper here in the UK) editorial on Burtynsky.  Had I been a photographer, these are the pictures I would be taking.  

The film is beautiful and I would urge you to go and see it.  

There is also an exhibition of (some) of his 6ft by 4ft photographs in London ("prices start at £5500 + VAT").  

I'm sure they will won't mind if I reproduce some of his images here...
 
In the film. these photographs are shown on the screen.  BIG.  BIIIIIIIIIG.

In fact, including any of them here is almost pointless.  Small reproductions of them is totally disrespectful of them.
