Pointing the Camera at an Angle
On Friday I had the camera pointing up and Saturday I had the camera pointing down so today I'm tilting it for a few photos. This one of an office building I've had on the site before. I like those stripes and decided to see if I could get them going in a different direction.
Across the street from the top photo is the Camby Hotel. This used to be the Ritz Carlton but has changed to this new place, a Marriott Boutique Hotel.
Sorry for the spots and glare on this shot. I took it through the windshield early on Saturday. More and more I'm seeing these full size ads covering the sides of some of the downtown's sleek, glass skyscrapers.
This last one is the old San Carlos Hotel on a corner in downtown. This hotel has been around for a very long time and has had some very famous guests in the past. Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable are just a few of the notables who've stayed here.
I have a new post on Sharon's Sojourns today. I'm visiting a National Monument with a funny name.

Like the third one. Is always nice to experiment.

I like them a lot Sharon, reminds me of Luis from One Photograph a Day's work, he likes to put a different slant on things ☺
I love these shots Sharon. A different perspective is a nice way to see something familiar look different. It is refreshing!
Nice! When I take a picture at an angle, it's usually accidental.
I like those angles!
Is the San Carlos still a hotel? Is it swanky?
