Ho-leeeeee.. Where the hell is that? Can we all live there?

Gorgeous photographs, as always darling..

we can all live there, if we are willing to live in the chichi condos that this gorgeous place is being turned into, unfortunately. Of course, I was entertaining the same thoughts as you while wandering the halls and stepping out on the sunlit rusty balconies...

You always get really amazing colors. And I think I like the bathtub one the best, composition-wise.

well, the colors are definitely adjusted in editing the pictures. But they are all there in the old walls and the old furniture, I just need to bring them out. Old buildings do have very particular colors...the pale green, the deep raspberry red, the institutional colors from the 70s that I hate in active places, but love in abandoned ones.

the hotel? It's already been sold/bought and is going to be turned into luxury condos.

if it had been local, I would have invited you along :)

if you are really interested, yes, you could see it for another couple of weeks, and I could put you in touch with the right people for that, but it is in Philadelphia...

Ahhh! The colors in yours are amazing! Mine are all a little washed-out looking. And I was having white balance issues with all the sun coming through the windows. But yours are gorgeous! I'd been itching to see them! :)

Off-topic, where/what is this icon from?

I totally don't know; I found it...I think I came across it while browsing through one of the icon communities on lj; I like it...I might make it my default one.

Fascinating and beautiful. Damn shame they're becoming chichi condos.

If Hopper had only had a camera: "rear view"

And "mirror 1.0" may haunt me, eternally.

Thank you.
