EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the striking contrast between nature's beauty and mankind's industrial footprint. Along the roadside on Black Mountain in Lynch, Kentucky, a band of coal is prominently visible within the rock layers. The image, taken by Charles Mostoller on August 13,2019, showcases the significance of this mineral as a fuel source. The composition of the photograph draws attention to the intricate layering of stone formations surrounding the coal band. Lush greenery and grass provide a vibrant backdrop against which this natural resource stands out starkly. The absence of people allows viewers to focus solely on this remarkable geological feature. In an era where environmental concerns are paramount, this picture serves as a reminder of our reliance on fossil fuels for energy generation. It prompts contemplation about how we can strike a balance between industry and preserving our planet's delicate ecosystems. Charles Mostoller skillfully captures both artistic creativity and documentary precision in his portrayal of this scene. With ample copy space available, viewers are encouraged to reflect upon their own relationship with nature and consider sustainable alternatives for future generations.
