This was once a trailer used for storage on a strip job but as you can see it was vandalized and burned to the ground. The coal company lost a good deal of money with all that was stored in it and the vandals were never caught. About the only thing it's good for now is photographing. I caught a nice sky on this evening and thought the combination of the used to be trailer and burning sky would make for a nice burned out photo, thus the caption. :) Thanks for viewing.

Wow! The place was burned out but that sky surely isn't. It's an interesting combo, the color and story behind the shot and your caption.

Beautiful image Mr. P, but I can't say I have a problem with the vandals.
After all, the coal company was raping the environment with strip mining. One crime was committed
against the coal company while the latter was a crime perpetrated upon our environment by the coal company.

That thar be my 2 cents which ain't really worth much these days. :-)

But really, I don't condone vandalism. I was just saying that I don't have a problem with them to add emphasis to my point that followed.

Thanks folks.
It was thought that a great hunting area had been destroyed here when this area was stripped. Many people believe it was people that had hunted this area for years that started the fire but I guess they'll never know for sure. I'd say it's a safe bet tho that someones intentions was to get even with the company that raped this once beautiful land.
