A French photographer has captured hauntingly beautiful pictures that showcase abandoned theme parks, homes, and churches worldwide that have slowly been taken over by nature.
Romain Veillon, from Paris, released a book titled 'Green Urbex: The World Without Us' at the beginning of October, which takes readers on a visual journey to places that have been forgotten by society.
Mr Veillon wrote that he wants each photograph to tell a story and make people think about what had previously occurred at places that are now derelict and about what the world would look like if mankind disappeared.

He also said that while turning through the pages, he hoped that people were reminded of the need to live 'in harmony with our habitat'.
One image captured by Mr Veillon showed a stunning church in France that had been abandoned.
While the tiled floor featured stones that had broken and greenery that filled the area, the magnificent architecture and detailed patterns carved along the walls remained intact, along with the colourful stained glass windows that were highly featured on religious buildings.

Another image featured a building in the ghost town of Kolmanskop in Namibia, which was once a German colony.
The rooms had been inundated with large amounts of sand. There was one white door remaining sunken in the sand.
The brightly coloured wallpaper of the house had also begun to peel off as nature took its toll.
