Description This is a shot taken from my back yard. There's an old brick incinerator back there that's being overtaken by plant life, and I think it's fascinating watching the things of man being incorporated into nature, broken down and subsumed. That's what I was thinking about when I shot this.

Edit: Forgot the pic was that big. I made it smaller and reposted.

Hehe, ok I'm just going to coment on this and one other pic. You update too fast man! Anyway, I really like this pic, that's why I chose it to coment on! Very nice way of showing that nature and man made products are always fighting a war with eachother, even though we might not see it all the time.

Thank you very much!

I update intermittently at best. I go through dry periods then brief spates of feverish updating that never actually catch me up with what I have made, and then I fall behind on updates and despair of ever catching up.

The conflict between the natural and the manufactured is a fascinating and complex interplay that has been explored many times, but still has tremendous potential.

yeup. It's often hard to tell who's destroying whom... nature and man.

That's one of the things I think is so beautiful about the interaction between man and nature. It's more subtle, dynamic and two-sided than we tend to think.

"Nature" is also pretty hard to define. It can include the physical earth, or only the living things on it.
