Being from up further north and not having ever seen the coal mining area before. I was really fascinated by it all.
Beautiful b&w composition!
Happy weekend dear Carver!

I have never seen this before, interesting!
Thank you for sharing this. I love to read about such things. Lovely photo too.
Wonderful picture...;-D
There seems to be a spurt of interest in deserted buildings at present - I hadn't realised there are so many . . . and they almost always provide lots of shape and interest.

I've never seen a coal mining area, either and my first impression was that this is one very tall building.
I have seen similar buildings occasionally, but never was able to explain them. Perhaps they had the same use as this one!
Nice shot, it looks good in b/w.
A great composition. Love the overgrowth surrounding it.
That's an amazing barn! Love the old structures that have "seen" a lot of history!
Your sky watch photos are wonderful too. The green landscape against the bright blue sky and sprawling white clouds make these photos look like paintings!
*have a very happy weekend*

West 'By God' Virginia coal country. You captured the mood well.
Wow...looks amazing and classic!
Fascinating building Carver. I'm surprised at how good it still looks. There's so much texture in those walls.
B&W adds more moods to the image. Great image.
This reminds me of the old John Wayne movies :)
