Thursday’s Special: è u tempu sà (and the time knows)
When I saw this bunker on Corsica from WWII I thought of the Cardinal. It looks like something he would have loved to photograph 😉
And here it is from a different angle. I like this one better.
I hope you will like the beautiful Corsican music I attached above 🙂
**About Thursday’s Special: It is a ‘non-challenge’ challenge that appeals to bloggers eager to wake up their creativity and show their own ideas and interpretation of the world. I invite everybody interested to join in. There are no themes, titles and techniques set for your expression, there are no limits and restrictions (no red tape whatsoever). The only thing required is to post a photo post on Thursdays entitled “Thursday’s Special: (your theme/title)” (as explained in my Thursday’s Special introductory post), to provide a link to my Thursday’s Special post, and to leave a link to your post in the comments section of my post. If you like Thursday’s Special widget, feel free to grab it and post it on your blog.

Excellent. I like both angles, but I think the first one has a more dramatic look because of the clouds above 🙂

I think I prefer the colours in the first shot. But I also really like the second because it gives you much more context on the location of the bunker set into the hills like that. Great to see it from two different angles.

🙂 the majority prefers the first HDR one 🙂 and it is understandable with that sky bursting out of it. I find the second one more poetic, nostalgic 🙂
