This Land: Visual Pollution

The New York Times features this photo slideshow of suburban "visual pollution" and the loss of a sense of place.

The slideshow is narrated by Kevin Fry, president of Scenic America, a non-profit advocacy group dedicated to enhancing the visual character of America's communities and countryside.

"Once you've lost your connection to a place there's no reason to care about it any more," Fry says.

The slideshow is approximately three minutes long.
