A New-York and Berlin based photographer named J. Henry Fair uses pictures to reveal things that may be affecting us in the world. The environmental activist travels the globe to be able to capture unique shots that make his photography stand out. His project called “Industrial Scars” explores the detritus of our consumer society. In small planes, he flies over industrial areas and photographs the damaged parts that we have created with the help of industrialization. From oil drilling to habitat destruction, all his works illustrate the sad side of our modern reality.
We at Bright Side are both amazed at how magnificent Fair’s photos are and saddened at how much humankind has impacted the planet. Here’s some of the photographer’s best work.
Which of these pics impressed you the most? Is there a way you personally try to help the environment?
Sheesh; why is it almost always the bad things in life that get described as being "powerful"? Didn't people learn anything from Oscar Wilde? "Humanity takes itself too seriously; it is the world's original sin. If the caveman had known how to laugh, history would have been different."
is it weird that I think these are really good looking?
You’re not alone! I was pretty impressed too?
Well the photographer did his job excellent!
The view is so cool tho.. sorry earth!
The mining waste looks really good tho ?
Sorry to be the one to say this, but these would make such great wallpapers...
You're right, they look "cute" but the backstories of them are just devastating
You're right, I was just saying that this photographer makes these issues look like "small and cute" things
The immiscible oil in Mexico is terrible ?
