Human Impact
Nearly every place we go, there is evidence that humans have been there before us. Sometimes there are small signs such as a fire ring, or a barely visible trail. Other times it is massive - Power Plants, Refineries, Mines or Dams. We humans have always left our mark. Sometimes the marks are beautiful, other times they are offensive. I suppose the viewer is the one to choose which it is for them. I personally find there is beauty in nearly everything I photograph, or I don't make an image. I don't know what I would ever do with a stack of photos of ugly things.
