A Glimpse of Hope

Alcatraz Prison

From small rectangular openings in the main cell block wall, through scratched and worn glass,
San Francisco beckons from across the bay.

Must've been horrible. Locked up while having a view on the free world. Outstanding reflection of the mood and feelings. ~BV~

Wonderful framing and capture, Raymond! V

Excellent capture contrasting the cold isolation of the prison with the warmth of society. I'm surprised prisoners were allowed such a nice view! If I was there I'd ask for that cell! V

Ah, that beautiful, unreachable view of freedom has to have been especially torturous for the prisoners. I like how you framed this.
