Familiar sight Rafael! And interesting story too.

This is a place long time members will remember, it is the Queen Califia court, by Nikki St Phalle (RIP). She was the queen of the island of California, in a spanish mythical tale from the 1400s. All the statues and totems have a meaning, most related to the invasion of Constantinople by the muslims in the 1400s. The queen was a muslim and had fierce Griffins attack the city, but she was captured and fell in love with her spanish captor and they lived happily ever after....... (don't remember it well, should read the tale again).

This place used to be open all the time, but it is in the middle on nowhere; now it only opens a couple of days a week and the second Saturday of each month.

When it was open all the time it was my place to test lenses, a mile from home and full of detail and light.

Was glad to find it in good condition after many years.

Wanted technically excellent photos, not special looks, so the Millenium and the 20mm 2.8 ais were tasked with the Z6 ad D810.

First of many postings.
