20050308 / Golden State

Monterey, CA

Tuesday. Farmer's Market Day in Monterey on Alvarado St.
The Golden State Theater is undergoing major renovations.
I think she adds a beautiful touch to the downtown skyline-
especially when the sun starts to set and floods her facade with light.
Here is the same shot in black and white.
And another from a different angle. And why not, a shot
of Tabouli Man, purveyor of fine Middle-Eastern foods, like
Spinakopita-spinach, feta, onions and lemon juice wrapped
in a pita. :)

Speaking of Middle-Eastern foods, Thanks Donna for the
excellent baklava. Nothing better with a cup of coffee
than a tray full of bird's nests. ;)


other sizes: small medium original auto

it's certainly soaking up the sun

Applied Image. :) Mostly to get the true tones from the building. It had the added effect of darkening the sky nicely.

Im wondering the same thing, I think you used a filter, chris can you confirm this? Either way, good job whatever you used

Did you use a filter? The sky is beautiful!

This shot as well is my favorite. I love how it is washed in gold. Very beautiful contrast and I like the detail that you still can see...around that front window. Very nice.

Very nice against the vivid blue of the sky. It seems proud.. I like this shot best.
