Bunker Symmetry

In B&W:

In Color:


Nikon D100, Sigma 15-30mm


These old, coastal defense artillery bunkers' designs remind me of the Pueblo style architecture of the American Southwest. This one was at Fort Baker.

Hi Warren, I like the b&w. The color one seems to have an orangish-cast.

Hey, Warren, are you sure we weren't at the Alamo?? The Alamo was the first thing that came to my head when I saw your shots.

I think I like the b&w a bit better. It furthers the statement of 'old bunkers' and imaginatively puts the troubles of war behind us ...

But the colour one is also interesting, painting a more accurate picture of what it's like to stand where you had, and look at it, study it, and imagine what kinds of training and preparations had gone on here.

Symmetry's also nice on both shots :)
