This photograph speaks volumes... a Dream come true.
To those who "know", the austere vacancy here is a world of hope-fulfilled everywhere.
...if only the "cost" of this picture could be calculated!

I really like this shot, lonely, yet soaked in history (I assume). Which beach is the bunker stationed on?

Nice ocean view, but not much in the way of an interesting building. There isn't much to look at but the water.

cool find! I'm guessing that the subject "building" is not very deep therefore not possible to see more of it in this image which may have been an even better image for this challenge, but i like it!

The focus of the image should be the building for this challenge, nice shot though

I like the idea of this shot but the colors seem flat. The sea/sky are a bit washed out. Great frame affect.
