Light Up the Darkness

Light Up the Darkness by Nate Ortiz – Simple in its composure for what I assume was a “right-place at the right-time” moment.

Blast Furnace

Blast Furnace by Filth City – A massive blast furnace in Pennsylvania tempts me to hop into the car and spend a few hundred bucks in gas and tolls just to get there.
