Kind of reminds me of Cheyenne Mountain in Colorado Springs, CO (where
the NORAD complex is buried).

When you first get to Fort Carson, you can see a large number of radio
masts on top of the mountain. After you've been there a while, you find
out all those radio masts belong to local TV & radio stations. The
military has no facilities on TOP of the mountain.

NORAD's communication facilities are buried in the mountain side. Don't
ask me how underground radio antennas work, because I never did figure
it out.

I reckon there's a family of undead cannibal serial killers living there. Very

Dragged my Pentax 28mm tilt/shift lens out of the cupboard and started 
experimenting with it on the K1.

I am starting to operate it effectively but need some taller buildings 
to really see the benefit.

There was a bit of Chromic Aberration that needed cleaning up in Lightroom.
