In the beginning we all lived peacefully together in a place called paradise. But over time, humans grew further apart from the animals. In this series we wonder how things could have been if we didn’t leave paradise, is there still a way to return? Note: No animals have been harmed for photographs. They are photographed in their natural habitats or zoos from a safe distance. All Animals are digitally edited into the final composition.
