TEXTBOOK OF LANDSCAPE GARDENING 
this study it will be necessary for each student to analyze the scenery 
of the assigned area in the same way, to select a leading landscape 
motive, then to find and fix definite points of view from which certain 
aspects of the selected motive may be seen to best advantage. In 
default of the photograph, full descriptive notes must be made on 
each of these views, and upon this basis class discussions may be 
undertaken. 
When the class is constrained to study an area in this way 
without a camera it will be most desirable, after each pupil has made 
his individual studies and notes, for the class and teacher to visit 
the ground and to conduct their discussions in the presence of the 
specific views selected and marked (by stakes) by the pupils.
