Best Image

I believe that this image is very strong in the way it inflicts the conceptual ideas of nature taking over and dominating us. This can be seen in this photo where the leaves/vines appear to be invading the bathroom through the boarded up window. This is a clear representation of the power of nature and how it can overcome barriers created by humans, in this case the hospital building. It also relates to how this building is taking up space unnecessarily which could be used for nature and wildlife purposes. The use of leading lines within the baths frame helps to draw the viewer up to the window where the vines are taking over.
