This is the historic Cosmopolitan Hotel in Old Town - San Diego.
It is said that - back in the day - a fair amount of "adult entertainment" took place in the upstairs rooms.

I love your PP work with this one, Eric. Excellent conversion. Very good composition and chosen perspective as well. This place looks like I could really enjoy spending some time there.

Thanks for your feedback and support Tom!
There is a very charming courtyard eatery inside where I'm sure they have lemons and fermented agave juice.

All processing done manually in LR3.

Real nice.

super processing

TomCollins · Oct-08-2012, 08:25 PM #5

Wow, beautiful tones and great composition. I want to go there.

Earache · Oct-09-2012, 05:19 AM #6

Thanks for the look Rags - appreciate it!

Thanks Tom! Come on down!.... You're already on the correct coast.

Although, I don't know why a person would ever leave your region - massive beauty and history up there - I hope to visit again someday.

I like your comp and processing on this shot. Good Job Eric

Thanks for the kind feedback Randy - it's always good to understand when comps appeal to the eye of the viewer.
Shot with a Sigma 10-20mm @ 16mm, so processing included significant distortion correction to fix converging verticals.

I think the same could be said for all hotels and motels . Upstairs or downstairs,especially if there is alcohol involved.

You're so right lensmole.......some things never change, and human beans are kooky creatures......especially me!

Hi Juano! Thanks for the support - appreciated.
The best part was, after the shot, I went inside and had some killer shrimp tacos - most photo subjects don't give back like that!
BTW, if a person hasn't eaten Mexican Food in San Diego, you just ain't livin' - good salsa has changed my life!

Very nice job all around!
