Noble Rot

Large View / On Black

 

A couple of days ago I emailed the owners (and family friends) of a local restaurant and wine bar, Noble Rot, in Portland. I asked if I could photograph their establishment without a flash. They emailed back saying sure and I stopped by that night.

 

I've always loved the decor but I've never really had a way to capture it. Since I've been on the lookout for interesting HDR shots, I thought that Noble Rot would work perfectly.

 

If you're local and haven't been - you must visit. The food is unbelievable - very tasty, original plates along with a wide selection of wines that complement the meals nicely. The setting is great and the location/view is wonderful and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable.

 

I was there for a couple of hours - early on I was just trying to stay out of the way. Towards the end of the evening the crowds eased up and I was able to move about more freely. This is a shot I took towards the end of the evening as the staff was cleaning up for the night.

 

Thanks to Courtney and Leather for allowing me to photograph and for the entire staff for putting up with me.

 

Enjoy!
