Abandoned places, as fascinating as they are, best demonstrate one thing – just how quickly nature can what our civilization has left behind. Be it a piano in the middle of the woods (no questions asked) or an entire building, grass, vines and even trees will find their way to the sun no matter what’s in their way.  This compilation of beautiful photographs will show how, in the end, nature wins it all.
