this is a crack in the road of an old highway in Centralia. they shut the road down and built a new one beside it, but if you climb a dirt pile and take a walk, you can find this in the road. its about 5 foot deep at certain parts, and there is smoke rising up out of it continually. the town has been burning underground since the 80s and unless they pay millions of dollars to fix it, which they have tried, it will continue to burn and spread.

I was wondering why there was smoke or dust coming out. The feeling I get out of this capture is of despair and loneliness. This is a good thing. I really love it when a picture and incorporate a mood well.
