I stumbled on this location by accident. I was on my way to another location to photograph and I caught site of this abandoned coal breaker as I drove past. I slowed down, then kept going… then stopped, turned around, and decided to explore the place. What a great decision. I ended up spending about five trips here to photograph the coal breaker on different days and provide a portrait of a place from days long ago. I especially loved the way the light interacted with the inside of the building - entering in from fogged over or broken windows. And while I experimented with both color and black & white, it was the black & white images that conveyed the feeling of the place best.
