Super use of lines and perspective Mary. One wonders what history and stories these stones could reveal.
Make your life spectacular!

Exceptional symmetry and a wonderful feeling of depth created by the converging lines of the pathway. Also, I love the interplay between highlight and shadow. Well done, Mary!

+1.  The repeating pattern draws my eye to the opening and a feeling of walking to the end and enjoying the walk along the way.

Wonderful perspective on this beautiful monument-I feel like I am right there and could walk down the path. Such history must be behind this. Beautidully done!
