Renewal of life





My image started out as an image of a woman surveying the damage left behind by a natural disaster. She is walking down a once tree and house lined street. I remixed the image so that it showed that same woman walking down the same street. The street was transformed into street surrounded by a lush and green wilderness with two mountain cottages on either side. It represents the fragility of human creations, life and the natural world. Many natural disasters are made worse and turn deadly due to human actions. Deforestation, dams and global warming all are to blame for the increased severity of "natural disasters".

Original Image from Sports Illustrated, July 2010, Salvation Army ad.
