    Nice look to it. :D Really like the PP as I find it lends lots of appeal to
    what might be overlooked and under appreciated out of hand.

    Thanks for looking and for the nice comment, Michael. I just thought I could add a certain kind of look on an ordinary shot. :D

    Very interesting processing, Jiro. It's certainly got a classic look to it. Maybe you can sell it to the corporation. :D

    I like it when considered as commercial art for the chain. Very nice processing.

    I like it. Nice comp and processing. Where is it? I think there is a La Quinta in nearly every Texas town! :D

    I agree. As someone who has spent a lot of time in various hotels/motels for business trips, I wouldn't think to photograph one. Your processing of this shot makes it more than 'just a hotel' picture. Nicely done.

    Thanks, Randy. Yeah, this little town still has some deers just roaming around the streets once in a while. :D
