This was taken as a larger shot of a building in Balboa Bay. I found the building not as interesting as the doorway. So the doorway it is!!
I was out for some nighttime/sunset shooting. The night turned out to be not as interesting or as inspiring as I would have liked. But this doorway came out all in all not to bad. Like I stated above, this doorway was apart of an entire building I shot I thought might have been interesting. Eventually after some processing the building didn't really have any pop. But to me this doorway to this shop did. So I concentrated my efforts here and like I said earlier, I am not totally unhappy with the way it turned out. I felt it was worthy of posting. So here it is.
