Next Stop : Manzanar

The old Lone Pine railroad station, now privately owned, was the last stop for the relocated Japanese-Americans on the way to Manzanar.

You have constructed an image here that is really similar, to me, in theme, to your image of the barbed wire at Manzanar. The parallel lines at the top and bottom of both images create a sense of foreboding and imprisonment. Here the lonely, empty bench in the middle of the image adds to that sense of doom and fear. You have, again, made an image that speaks of the history of what you see.
