Hotel Patio

Hotel Del Coronado, CA

To be honest I don't know why I like this picture. Something about the sun on the left and the repeating lines on the right. I debated going b/w, but returned to color because of the brilliance of the day.

No lens correction on this one.

Canon EOS 5D Mark II ,FD 15mm/f2.8 Fisheye
1/320s f/9.0 at 15.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

you are not the only one who likes that view. There is nothing important to see on it, but so much a a time, Robin. Then, there is something mysterious in it, you seek for something, but you don't know what. It reminds me the movie "the shining" from Kubrik. This empty Hotel scenery, this winter light too .... It's simply an amazing shot in my view.

Nice lines and repeating patterns. The fisheye adds a cozy look!

I like it because it takes a relatively ordinary scene and makes you really look at it.

FD 15mm? Very clever.

Composition works well, and blue of the sky looks wonderful. Looks like a fun lens to play with!
