The generic conventions within Richard Misrach’s work is the environmental issues inflicted by humans. The photographer clearly has a negative view on how society is treating the environment and has a variety of work displaying the pure destruction of the environment to  try and insure people are aware of these issues. He  uses strong juxtapositions within his work to show how we are unnecessarily building structures in scenic, natural areas.

This is a typical photograph taken by Misrach in which influenced me to try and capture a similar message within my photographs. On a photo shoot I decided to focus in on the things in which ruined the environment and really are showing a sign of humans presence. Thus was to create a sense of destruction that we are doing to our world.
