In this picture I see a discarded tire by the Lily Branch stream, surrounded by natural growth. I noticed that the tire was fairly close to the water, not just off in the trees, and because there were plants growing out of the tire I could tell it had been there for a while. Seeing this here makes me think about how careless we can be with our possessions, tossing them to the side when we’re done with them. Looking at it, I am disappointed in the human race for ruining a naturally beautiful and clean water source. I think this picture is about people not caring for the nature around them and not understanding the importance of things like the Lily Branch.
