About This Image

Charcoal was one of the main industries of Piedmont, WY. There were four charcoal kilns built in 1869, but one has since colapsed. They are about 25-30 feet tall; The doorway is probably 5-6 feet tall. I made this one black and white to pronounce the grains, shadows, and highlights of the stones. I also liked how the sky turned out really dark, which made the bright kilns stand out even more. I also like how the fence blends into the darker background because I felt that the fence shouldn't even be there; it distracts from the overall picture.

The B&W treatment is great, and at this angle the fence actually looks like a natural part of the scene.
