GREAT wallpaper choice!! A truly fantastic shot.
Quite nicely done Motts. Bye the bye, have you ever had a face to face meeting with Miss Lynne.
Loving this shot, man!
It does seem like a strange place for a concert. Those seats don't look comfortable....great pic Motts!!!
Motts, are you familiar with the work of Macin Stawiarz and Xavier Rey?
now that's a picture! awesome.
anyone else notice that when you look at the biggest wallpaper version of this, and look at it at full size, to the bottom left it looks like there are 2 people sitting near the bottom
I saw what you mean Darkness. I too saw two people sitting on the left hand side...
I can't get over how beautiful these places are! I wish I had the ability to go out and explore abandoned buildings myself.
This place has a roman flair which I find ironic given Germany's history with Rome. And it becomes further ironic given the idea behind the structure - uniting past Germanic ideologies with the present ones. Germanic tribes were rather rag-tag in their construction of buildings, etc. preferring to use wood for constructions and notorious for warring amongst themselves. I wonder what history class is like in German schools?
A picture that definitely pulls in your full attention and gives a longing invitation for you to come in and explore her wonders. One of the best photos I, myself, have ever seen.
The Thingstätte was designed and supervised by the Nazi war machine, however the stones were formed and laid in place by forced labor under very terrible conditions. To see this construction in this terrible condition is a disgrace to all those laborers that died and disappeared during the war. No commemorative Plaque for all those that actually build this immense construction by hand one stone at a time is located at this site.
It looks like something in a corn field in the mid-west....
all i imagine is a nazi party gathering
