		<description><![CDATA[The heart-wrending photo I posted yesterday of an Alabaman wave polluted by the Gulf oil spill prompted me to share some work by artists who evidently love nature, and whose work, I find, deepens my own love for nature and beauty. Sakiyama Takayuchi is a Japanese ceramic artist who makes clay look like water and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I first saw this photograph (by David Martin of the AP) in June: spilt oil forms a delicate pattern in waves hurtling toward the Alabama coastline: I have seen a number of photographs, all terrifying, of oil-covered pelicans and brown waterscapes in the Gulf region.

		<description><![CDATA[I think a lot about the concept of placeness, and what differentiates one location on the planet from another, beyond what you can see. Isn&#8217;t it interesting that in certain places you can sense stories humming in undertones? And that the spaces in which we move, physically, effect our activities and emotions and aspirations in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Originally uploaded by ardour. I find this picture by Yoav very beautiful. It reminds me of something that has bothered me for some time, and for which no one has yet supplied an answer that makes sense: Although we see and hear many birds each day, why do we almost never see dead birds? I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Morningside Park. On Friday, I had to get from the upper west side of Manhattan down to the UN, over to Brooklyn, and back, and happened to pick a miserable, urban ice storm in which to do it. In addition to subways, that&#8217;s about 40 blocks of outdoor walking. I had not come to the [...]]]></description>
