The dramatic light of the late afternoon casts dark shadows and deepens the colors of the natural setting.Galleries:Fort Matanzas, Forts and Fortifications, St. JohnsKeywords:Fort Matanzas National Park, Forts, National Monument, Saint Augustine, Spanish fort, St. AugustinePhoto Location: Fort Matanzas National Monument, St. Johns County, FloridaPhotographer: Dr. Roy WinkelmanDate of Photo: 12/17/2013Device Make: CanonDevice Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark IIExposure Time: 0.0166667F Number: 22Original Dimensions: 5616×3744Picture Orientation: LandscapeGPS Coordinates: 29°42′55″N 81°14′21″WPicture Number: 26698
