The photographer explores the contrast between natural environments and those created by human, and discovers that however far removed from the natural environments, people still tend to want to include it in their everyday lives. The pictures visually describe what humans have created or destroyed in order to add utility to their lives, and are meant to be looked at in order of their sequence from the natural to the manmade environments.
