Aerial and landscape photographer Alexander Heilner has always been interested in how the artificial and the natural coexist.

"I'm really interested in the idea that all the things we build are actually mark-making across the earth, and it's artistic in some way, but not initially," he told Business Insider.
His mission to document railroads, housing developments, and potash mines that have altered the landscape has made for some georgous and thought-provoking work.
