I was thinking of doing a set called “Nicely dressed women sitting on rocks”, since I keep finding photos that would meet that theme as I go through my collection. But this one is probably my favorite, so I thought I’d post it by itself. Hold it in your hand and it doesn’t look like much. But enlarge it, and suddenly it looks like an old movie still, complete with the mystery of what that woman is doing there.
Reblogged this on Conceptual Art.
I’d like a cottage like that. I suppose it is really a weather station?
… or is it the top of a lighthouse? I agree that it is interesting the more you look at it.
I’m guessing it’s a “fire tower” or “fire lookout tower”, a little mountaintop station used by the Forest Service to spot forest fires, but I could be wrong.
Okay. I had automatically assumed a beachside location…

Yes! It does have that look. 🙂
