Standing Stone Creek flows through Alan Seeger Natural Area in Huntingdon County, Pa., on Oct. 7, 2020. An invasive insect, the hemlock woolly adelgid, has attacked eastern hemlock trees in the area, which holds a rare stand of old-growth trees. The hemlock woolly adelgid causes an infested tree to drop its needles, and stressed trees can eventually die from heat and drought. Active management in Pennsylvania includes chemical treatment and biocontrols—essentially predatory beetles that eat the invasive insect. Keeping a forest healthy—by safeguarding its soils, water quality and biodiversity—plays a huge part in keeping trees resilient to the invaders. (Photo by Will Parson/Cheapeake Bay Program)

This stack of rocks is about 10' high, and carefully fitted. It shrinks in relation to the buildings.
In his ... gardens ... Noguchi achieved subtle ... syntheses of nature with the man-made, fusing organic and geometric, balancing intuition with intellect. 'California Scenario' seamlessly integrates them. ... it is an enclosed space adjacent to an office building, 'California Scenario' appears open and spacious; the proportional relationship of the asymmetric pyramid to the smaller rocks and plants creates a sense of vastness and scale beyond the actual dimensions of the garden. Local desert stones unify this environment in color and texture. The channel of water running through the center contrasts with, and enhances, the viewer's awareness of the surrounding dryness. The pronounced individuality of elements of the Beinecke courtyard has here matured into a cohesive whole; sculpture and environment are one.
