one really aggravating things about taking minecraft screenshots is that what makes a beautiful compelling screenshot has only a small correlation with what feels good to move through, which you are always doing because it's a game in which you move around! but GIFs are more complicated in terms of a) it's not a one button press and b) requires a more complex understanding of shot composition and angles.
but what i come back to is that, i think really good landscape design/build-building (???? i mean like, city planning but for not-cities, something approaching urban design but from a personal POV?) is defined largely by the natural imposition of perfect viewing angles at any given point along the prescribed path which the environment urges you to take. this is why i love bdubs but it's also why i love Olmstead park design down to the minutiae. i think minecraft should be a cherokee park from which you cannot escape and don't wish to for a long time.

Olmsted and America's Urban Parks
Having grown up in New York and having travelled through the Northeastern area back in the 1970s and early 1980s I am familiar with several examples of Olmsted's most famous works and his work and my experiences with and in them have always been part of most cherished memories that remain in me fondly forever.

Hi, Neil!
...just throwing this ask into the ineffable void of your inbox....
I love your work, and Good Omens is currently my "happy place". Thank you for that!
I just finished "The Graveyard Book", and although it's set in England, it got me wondering...
...when you've been in Cambridge, MA, US, have you ever got the chance to visit Mount Auburn cemetery?
It's beautiful with a lot of history (at least as far as America goes) and has gorgeous landscaping and gardens. They do a beautiful winter solstice light celebration. My husband works there in building maintenance.
Thank you!
I have and I loved it. Wasn't it designed by the same person who made New York's Central Park. (Olmstead?)

Red-bellied Woodpecker ♂️ Now you can see why it's named the Red-bellied Woodpecker. The belly isn't always visible because of the way the bird clings to the tree, with its belly pressed against the tree. #nature_worldwide_birds #bird_captures #your_best_birds #eye_spy_birds #allmightybirds #birds_fanatic #birdsofinstagram #planetbirds #ip_birds #audubonsociety #birdselite #bestshotz_birds #birds_illife #total_birds #best_birds_of_world #raw_birds #birds_perfection #bbcearth #bestbirdshots #massaudubon #birdfreaks #nuts_about_birds #woodpeckersofinstagram #bird_brilliance #birds_adored #best_birds_of_ig #best_birds_photography #amazingbirds #redbelliedwoodpecker #woodpecker (at Olmstead Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn2U-OEv8Wq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Sunday in the Park: Family Artifacts
Nearly fifty years ago, after classes, I would pick up my little girl from university day care and we would go to Lake Park. It is a famous park, designed by Frederick Law Olmstead, full of walkways and paths and hidden waterfalls. The playground then was rudimentary. There were swings, a jungle jim, and a few slides. Everything was metal and too high. It was before we decided climbing safe…
