    Very cool. Your coke machine fared a lot worse over time than the one I shot a couple of months ago.... Love it!

    It is obvious that being in this underground bunker that was converted to a Speak Easy by the Marines in the 1940's has taken it's toll.

    Thanks for the comment. I was worried that it would show too much camera shake because I used 1/10 and available light. I really wanted the light coming in from the opening in the wall to highlight the Coke machine.

    Very nice work, particularly the third one.

    Is there much evidence on the island that reflects the WW11 situation?

    Welcome to the forum...I look forward to more of your pictures.
