Residual Soil

This picture is part of my 'Residual Soil' project. A series of squared photographs taken in Germany at the contested open coal pits. Taken from a number of viewpoints with different type of lenses and even a telescope to dive into the mine as deep as possible. I deliberately tried to avoid the obvious big scrapers that are present everywhere to create a kind of mystery around these contested places.
