I don't think I've ever seen any building with a red roof like that, but I really like it. Makes for a gorgeous photo. Great shot!

Wow - this is a classic from the 'railroad era'. Seems that these destination hotels were always white with red roofs. Gorgeous image, doubly so with the reflection!

Interesting lighting conditions. The dark gray clouds provided a great back drop... the sun poking through the clouds behind my back really lighting up the hotel. I think my exposure was a bit long but I like the way it turned out.

'SOME LIKE IT HOT!'

This IS the hotel used in the 1959 Smash Hit Movie starring Marilynn Monroe, Tony Curtis, and Jack Lemmon.

The reason I put the word IS in capitals, is because in the movie, they were suppose to be leaving cold, snowy Chicago for Florida...Not So! "But no body's Perfect".

What a History, What a Hotel, and What a Beautiful Photograph!

About Westerberg
Westerberg I got into photography while buying and selling cameras on eBay (user name: joewest2000). I enjoy test driving each camera that I sell and I've learned a lot from the old film SLRs. I had a lot of fun with my little Nikon Coolpix 2100 then a 3100... and finally... after seeing all the incredible shots on this site from digital SLRs I got a Nikon D80. After 4 years with the D80 I purchased a D3200. I also got a Coolpix P510 with an incredible 1000mm zoom. Amazing and fun camera, especially for the price. Lots of learning and practice and more practice.
