The Cross on Mt. Helix

I seem to be on a roll of "serious" subjects.
I have no idea why. This cross is the subject
of considerable controversy, given that it is
on public land. It is the second highest point
in the eastern suburbs of San Diego. It was
erected in 1925.

Is this the one by the prison? Nice work.

Your timing for this one is perfect. The backlighting works very well, makes this image dramatic and powerful. Well done and voted.

I am touched by what a caring and compassionate friend Robin is... What a comment! This shot is very dramatic. I hope we'll see you around her tomorrow.

Magnificent capture. The backlighting in the clouds is superb.
Regardless of the controversy, if the cross has been there since 1925,
in my mind it is grand-fathered in. It should stay.

Powerful and beautiful image Gary! Made even more so by your perspective and the dramatic sky surrounding the cross! A symbol of life, not death, to me. Vote!

You seem to be into death the past few days. That said, if this is your last shot it is a good one.
