ApocalypticArt - where the remnants of humanity's past meet the promise of an uncertain future. This is the place for apocalyptic wastelands, remains of once-thriving metropolises and forgotten relics of a bygone era.

I'm sorry but this is pathetically sloppy (e.g. the tracks in front of the station). Objects all over the image abruptly appear and cut out; this is either AI or really lazy Photoshop. The vibe is nice, but the more I stare at this the worse it gets. There's a lot of fantastic apocalypse-themed art out there; let's not crowd it out with low-effort pieces like this.
