There is this odd structure sitting out in the middle of nothing in Sunol (tiny town beyond Pleasanton, for those familiar with the area).
I head out that way to shoot barns and things and have seen it several times. Last Sunday I was in the area and took note of when it was open. For a long time I wasn't sure what it was. Turns out it is part of the San Francisco Water Filtration System (although Sunol is quite a distance from SF). No water visible, although there were raised areas of dirt I could not see over. There was some water in the temple itself, flowing and gushing over a tiled floor and man-made fall. Evidentially it was built sometime in the 1900's and was restored 1997-2000. Anyway, I went back yesterday and took bunches of shots, playing around. It has a classical and sort of dream-like look. I may show one or two more as PESOs, or go to a small GESO. http://members.aol.com/eactivist/PAWS/pages/temple1.htm Comments welcome.
