Are you familiar with the superstition that says you must make a wish at 11:11, or does it mean someone is thinking about you? Well, so is this installment.

These pillars were built so that rays of sunshine would shine through and create an image on the ground. They are the Five Armed Services Pillars; you can find them in Anthem, Arizona. These monuments are in the perfect position to create a solar spotlight at that exact time of day. The image projected onto the ground is a mosaic of the United States Great Seal. Whoever designed and fabricated this is a total genius.
