- landscapes (representations) - Use for creative works that depict outdoor scenes where the picture is dominated by the configuration, visual and aesthetic, of the land, bodies of water, and natural elements. When the ocean or other large body of water dominates the picture, use "seascapes." For images that are more documentary than creative, prefer "views" or "topographical views." For actual areas of land having certain notable characteristics, use "landscapes (environments)." [January 1993 scope note added; related term added. April 1991 descriptor moved; lead-in term added; descriptor changed, was "landscapes"; alternate term changed, was 'landscape'.]
- mountains
- valleys (landforms) - Land depressions having a more flattish landscape, with less precipitous slopes, than canyons or gorges. [March 1993 related term added. May 1991 descriptor changed, was "valleys"; alternate term changed, was 'valley'.]
