This image was taken on the Gulf Islands National Seashore in Florida. The hill to the left is an actual bunker built to defend the Pensacola Bay from Confederate soldiers.
This concrete gun battery sits on one of the most beautiful beaches in Northwest Florida. Once used to defend Pensacola Bay from the Confederate Army, this gun battery now sits idle and is the perching spot for heron looking out to sea.
