Photographer's Statement:
The picture is meant to represent how people and nature are separated by technology. The phone placed a wall between person and tree. It shows the importance of living in the moment and appreciating nature without screens in your face dividing you from it. Hopefully, it opens peoples’ eyes to put away their phones sometimes and enjoy earth’s beauty.
