On a walk in Fort Mason, SF this picture was taken. It scared the heck out of me and fascinated me at the same time.

If anyone doesn't see what I'm talking about, look at the lower left corner of the photo and see if you notice anything.

Here is a little history of Fort Mason, one of my new favorite places in San Francisco.
In 1863, the Army created in San Francisco, California, the Post at Point San Jose as a part of its coastal defense network. Renamed Fort Mason in 1882, after Richard Barnes Mason, a former governor of California, Fort Mason served as an Army post for more than 100 years. During World War II, it was a major port of embarkation for troops and supplies destined for the Pacific theater. The Korean War in the 1950s also kept the post busy. However, by the 1960s, Fort Mason's embarkation responsibilities shifted to the Oakland Army Terminal, while the headquarters offices continued to function most of installation's other properties fell into disuse. The National Park Service took over the administration of the site in the 1970s as a part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA).

Thanks for looking!
