Near the Woodminster Amphitheater in the hills just east of Oakland,Ca.,lies this stone structure that has no use whatsoever:) I'm sure it did at one point but I have no history to share with you at this time. Hope you can enjoy this despite the 'unhistorical' account:):)

One can easily see that the stone structure was used for something at one time. Maybe it was a place to go to seek refuge ... anyways, gets the mind thinking of what it could have been used for. I like the textured stones with some moss growing on them. Excellent detail / composition, Bruce. Superbly captured.

Very nice, Bruce. I've seen similar monuments in other countries, and generally they had statuary inside.Mostly the Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, or St. Christopher.
Always interesting, and thought provoking in any event.

Bruce - I'd suggest that this was designed to hold statuary. Photographed nicely. Thad

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

The difference between a bad artist and a good one is: the bad artist seems to copy a great deal; the good one really does. ~William Blake
