.The subject of this chapter is Texture Landscape.
I live in a very rural area where still peat is mined in drained bogs. Some of the dried peat is still used by older inhabitans as fuel. The bog, with its wetlands, in which the variety of grasses and silvery birches are reflected exerts a special attraction for me. I am faszinated about the history of the marsh colonization. Some of our older neighbors have punched peat in the bog as children with their parents. I like the smell of the peat fire. I am fascinated by the gnarled bark of the structure of the bog oak and its wood grain
