Ilove the way the colors within the bunker match those colors of the hills outside the bunker..very interesting.
(ps: this would be a great entry in the DLSR current challenge of leading lines )

Thanks for your comment, PhotoOwl. It is a most interesting place, with a view of the Golden Gate Bridge facing the opposite direction. There are still the large semi-circular mounts for the big guns that faced into the Golden Gate (the passage into the SF Bay) just outside, too, and a larger set of bunkers (and a small prison) up the road a ways. But I found this bunker and the divergent views it provides from this vantage point to be interesting, plus the graffiti lends another dimension to its history.

For me this is spot on. Nicely presented as well.
