These phone photos are mostly from an afternoon when I wandered aimlessly from my hotel down to Forsythe Park and back.

Should I admit to photoshopping the colour in? or say that this building really is this colour?
Brooklyn, Wellington, New Zealand
This is the cover image from my latest video tutorial discussing the addition of colour tones to black and white photographs using Adobe Lightroom and the Google Nik Collection
The image is of Dolphin Apartments in London where i stayed recently. Sometimes you have to take advantage when you end up with a room bang in the centre of the building.
The place has a dark history perpetrated by some appalling individuals.

These apartment buildings were across the street from the hotel we were staying in in San Francisco, near Union Square. It was taken through our hotel window, using my favorite lens, the Olympus 17mm f1.8 on my OMD EM-1. I was struck by the texture of the buildings, the graphic quality of the fire escapes and the interesting windows. I thought it came out pretty well, having been shot through two panes of dirty glass. Hope you enjoy it!
The Marlboro Apartments are in the historic Jefferson-Chalmers section of the city. This section of the city is one of the longest surviving business districts. This 3-1/2 story five bay apartment building constructed in 1927 contains 19 apartments. It is a yellow brick, Elizabethan-inspired structure with a protruding front entrance and symmetrical window arrangement. Not quite sure, but with the dumpster there, it looks like these are being saved.
It's easy to see which building the fire started in. It's a total loss, and will be demolished right after the fire's cause is established. However, since it is historic, they will salvage the cast iron facade from the first floor, and do a laser scan of the upper floors to make an exact record of what it looked like. The left half of the building may be saved. It's in significantly better condition, and is technically a different building.
