Artistic:

Land

Your inspiration this week is land. This could be a landscape, or an image inspired by the land in some way.

On an island limited in size, land is a premium. For this challenge, I decided to reconsider what the concept of 'land' means in a densely populated, largely non-agrarian society. I found a deserted agricultural field station with an abandoned wooden greenhouse that was quickly reverting to its natural state. The greenhouse had become overgrown: the orderly rows of plants that had once been carefully cultivated inside of it instead giving way to riotous regrowth and regeneration. I thought this juxtaposition made for an interesting image.
