content: This haunting photo taken in the Heart Mountain prison camp, shows the camp in Wyoming at night. The lights from each barrack shines in the night, creating a starry scene in the concentration camp. It shows the bare vastness and uniformity of the camp. In the middle of nowhere in Wyoming, this camp sticks out bright and out of place.
