Interesting title. Ravaged by nature, time and man.

Vegetation, man, rain,... they all are at work given enough time so I settled just with time

Maybe some are looking mostly at the brick wall, but I'm looking at that dandelion and thinking "those damn things will grow anywhere". Yep, any old derelict place will do. Life finds a way, again. The bricks, on the other hand, are ravaged by time and the elements. Good illustration of the way of the world in a simple image. Well done. Thanks.

Nice shot. The nice thing about dandelions growing in a wall is that you can eat them without fear of having been dog sprayed. ;-)

Proof that Mother Nature will reclaim the world when humans have finally been removed from it.
