These photographs are dedicated to our world’s cities.

In 1800, only 3 percent of the world's population lived in urban areas. It is estimated that by 2030 60 percent of the world population will be urbanized. Currently, there are more than 400 cities with over one million people.

Every city develops its own unique characteristics based on the history and culture of its inhabitants. Over time these inhabitants have created an unnatural biosphere of concrete and asphalt where few other species can survive. The trees and grass sprinkled about are there perhaps to serve as a reminder of our ancestors’ rural days.
