Endangered Species
All manners of wildlife from all over this Earth are threatened by the
destruction of their enviroment, over hunting, & polution are the greatest threat brought on by The Human Animal in their quest to make a better life for themselves.
I have tried to do my part in raising awareness for the preservation of all species, if we do not take heed, eventually we humans will destroy ourselves.
The overlays & juxtaposition of images over the animals have been purposley done for the effect of fading into nothingness, eventually they will be gone unless we do something to preserve them.
