Honey Does This Car Float?

Mystery Door

John Krill: Mystery DoorThe door is from somewhere in the Middle-east. The building was once a Post Office and a Synagogue. I believe it's one of the oldest buildings in Laguna Beach. It's located on Broadway at.

It's now a private art gallery. The owner is also a mystery.

The problem is nothing in front of the door and the front wall of the building fits in with the building itself. The building, front door, and lamp are old antiques and the railing and porch are very modern. The two styles clash. I mean really clash.

So why am I posting a failed photo? 1. I like the door and lamp. 2. The shadow of the tree adds drama. 3. It's a cool old building.

Solution: I'm probably going to do another photo only in the vertical. It will include only the door. I probably will have to exclude the lamp. The dark shadow of the tree is a must. How I'm going to do all this and keep that really ugly railing out of the photo is the challenge.

PS: I don't use Photoshop so Content Aware Fill isn't on the menu.

Today Over Laguna Beach

John Krill: Storm CloudsWhile trying to work at the computer I happen to look out the window and viewed this scene. I grabbed the camera and took a couple of photos.

Now 15 minutes later the sky is clearing and I'm on my way downtown.

See Ya.

All that you see was supposed to be transformed into a great park. Those in charge blame the decades long delays on the economy. Don't they always.

Another View From Hwy 111

John Krill: Another View From Hwy 111This photo shows the same intersection you see here but from further up the highway. Still looks surreal.
