The whimsical world of architect Uno Prii who designed the apartments at 100 Spadina Road (1969) along with other memorable rental buildings in the Annex neighbourhood. Prii's work with painting and pottery is thought to have influenced his modern designs which have been described as flowing sculptures.
The Drake Hotel, a historic 375-foot-tall, 33-story luxury hotel located at 1512-1514 Spruce Street at the corner of S. Hicks Street between S. 15th and S. 16th Street in the Rittenhouse Square neighborhood of Philadelphia, was built in 1928-29 and was designed by the architectural firm of Ritter and Shay in the Art Deco style with Spanish Baroque terra cotta ornamentation on themes surrounding Sir Francis Drake, including "dolphins, shells, sailing vessels and globes." The building is topped by a terra cotta dome.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 18, 1978. It was added to the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places on October 6, 1977.[2] In 1998, the building was extensively renovated and converted to condominiums as "The Drake".
In my boat along Gothenburg coastline = www.youtube.com/watch?v=OB8C6jHDSSA visiting Önnered, Fiskebäck, Hinsholmskilen, Saltholmen and Långedrag.
Fiskebäck is a modern fishing harbor constructed in the 1950s. Fiskebäck is the largest fishing village in Sweden. In the harbor is an ice factory and a netfactory in barn-red, which was designed in the 1960s. Next to the ice factory is a café, which also has program activities and a fishing museum.
There is also a large marina with shipyard and naval stores, and nearby is the Fiskebäck beach.

A different version of the "pink" apartments. I actually like this one better in the series of Mojave images.
Originally i think the complex was a motel. In the western Mojave near Edwards Air Force Base along Highway 58.
It is nice to discover a location this good in London which is not often photographed. I found it on a Website which gives 95 locations for Photography in London which has given me a few ideas. The link is london.photography/ It is on the junction of Three Oak Lane and Queen Elizabeth Street, a side street off Tower Bridge Road on the South Bank. The apartments go along the road widening in the middle to form a great circle. Photographically there was a neat combination of the great wall colours, the balconies forming diagonals and of course the Horse Statue. Really the location was ideal for HDR and a wide angle. To get the shot I had to do the standing in the middle of the road thing but there were few cars and any driver not seeing me would certainly see the Horse Statue, also in the middle of the road.
The apartments were built in the 1980’s The horse is called ‘Jacob’ and depicts one of the famous Courage dray horses which were stabled on this site from the early 19th century and delivered beer around London from the brewery in nearby Horselydown Lane. The Horse Sculpture was flown into the location by a helicopter and lowered into place.
The shot was taken with a Sony A68 with a Sigma 10-20mm lens at 10 mm. 3 images for HDR. Processed with Photomatix 6 using contrast Optimiser for a natural look. Topaz Clarity was used to add detail. Two Brightness Contrast Adjustment layers were used to brighten the foreground and darken the sky using layer masks and selections to limit the brush use on the masks to the required areas. Unsharp mask at settings of 43 amount and 43 Radius was used to add more pop and clarity.

Couple sharing a quiet moment before dawn, in a rusting car, in front of a dilapidated, beachfront apartment building in Baracoa, Cuba. The apartments were put into service in the late 1990's.
I took this in Chicago, Illinois on one of my summer trips there. The one on the left is called City Front Place and the rents go from $1400 to $3500 a month. Sadly, rents are getting higher and higher here in Austin as well. I'm starting to think about moving to another town.
Anyway, I'm not promoting Chicago apartments but this shot looked pretty good after I finished processing it so I figured I would throw it up here..;)) Happy Hump Day..:))
