Rusted Machinery

A rusted hydraulic claw looms over lawnmowers at a Bronx salvage yard.

"I do believe that many young adults are not connected to their environment," wrote photo camp participant Maria Martinez. Without nature, "we will forget what a flower even smells like.

We need it to survive, and without it we are nothing."
