I really like these images for their simplicity, although they remain viewable and interesting. They drawn you in to the main focal point of the image, whether it because of ...intense colour, strange objects, movement etc. The suggestion of regeneration is somewhat amusing, as the pictures do not reflect any regeneration, perhaps this is the point.
