Decimated Landscape

 These pictures are of nature and man, the clash between them, and the beauty behind their coexistence. In this first photo, I foreshadow my style of using foreground to show the beauty of nature. The general rush of colors in the back seems chaotic, to the monotone green of the plants.
 The used container looks disgusting, and I strategically placed it in the bottom left third intersection, to emphasize its invasion of the environment. Much like in the first picture I try and show the beauty of nature as opposed to the conquering of man.
 The trimmed leaves of the plant looks very unnatural, being centered makes it seem like everything around it is natural. With the stem's central position they seem isolated.
 This picture differs in that there is a lack of shrubbery, which is ironic since the sprinklers should be helping the plants grow.
 The tree seems peaceful compared to the blur of life behind it, again the power of foreground pictures.
A lone leaf, with the alien white colors behind it, signalling the end of a tree's livelyhood.

Annotations

 This picture is less about the objects than their colors, which is why I used a very colorful object to describe them. The red, yellow, and dark blue colors remind me of the end of the day when the sun sets.
 If you notice the pose of a dinosaur is very much like a person hiding, with the hunched over position and the long strides. He is doing a good job of hiding isn't he?
 A lot of things can be said about this picture, but no one recognizes what is right in front of them.
 This photo can be interpreted two ways the man has the power to hurt you, or he has the power to hurt himself.
 The brightness of the scene on the street is interrupted by a single break in the picture. Much like the things in the dark, the words are hard to see, because they are right underneath the beggining of the leading line.
 Pay attention to the placement of the bulbs, wouldn't he picture be so much more beautiful with the addition of two foreground pictures.
The leaf is trapped in between a rock and a hard place. The words are in the rock.

 What place could be more desolate for a plant than a cement desert.
 Why is the "Not" smaller?
How does the string ball up into a yarn ball? Only unwinding will find the answer.
