As tourists, even at the moment of photographing, even if touring cameraless, we are not so much looking as looking at images, or looking for images. Tourism provides us less with experience than with events to see, or rather, events to look at.
Peter D. Osbourne, Traveling light: photography, travel and visual culture
Landscape is a marketable commodity to be presented and re-presented in 'packaged tours', and object to be purchased, consumed, and even brought home in the form of souvenirs such as postcards and photo albums. In its double role as commodity and potent cultural symbol, landscape is the object of fetishistic practises involving the limitless repetition of identical photographs taken on identical spots by tourists with interchangeable emotions.
W. J. T. Mitchell, ‘Imperial Landscape’
