Hanford Reservation, Hanford, Washington, August 1994
1994, printed 1996

A billboard featuring two people in agricultural fields with the phrase "It's the Nature of Our Business" stands in a barren, industrial landscape with a water tower, construction equipment, and a clear sky in the background. The image is framed with a white border, giving it the appearance of a photograph within a photograph.
