    At first I thought, that it are images on the wall.
    All colors perfectly matched.
    It was not us was the forest, it will not us, will be the forest.

    I like the symmetrical framing of this extra-ordinary vision of stone and flora. And a nice weekend to you all.

    Wow, I love this one Doug. The richness in color, the framing, the contrast between something manmade and nature.

    Amazing. This buiding must have been fantastic once upon a time. I really like the construction of the blocks. I think I could spend hours studying each one of those rocks. LOL! Beautiful photo.

    Oh yeah, there are actually some trees behind the stone wall. I too thought they were images on the walk originally. You always provide fresh and interesting photos!

    Is the glass half empty or half full?
