One of my grails <3

I've wanted to do this place when I first saw pics of it. However there was some nasty rumors that it had gotten destroyed/gutted. Thankfully someone was awesome enough to let me know it was just a rumor and this was the time to go. A group of us headed there and I really wish we had more time there... my pics aren't that great.

Looks like a cool place. Not a fan of the wide angle for every shot though.

This place definitely is sick, but after this past weekend, I'm not sure I even want to go back again. I've seen sooo many shots from here recently.

Also, I agree about the fisheye thing...it's a cool effect in some shots, but should be used sparingly, especially in places like this where there's enough photogenic stuff as it is. You don't really need to add too much else to it to make it look interesting.

I like the shots, the location is amazing! but WAAAAAYYYY too fishy for my liking. That lens should be used really sparingly.

You more or less need a fisheye for the hotel, the rooms are very small and getting angles is rather difficult. I see that this location was the flavor of the week(end), but I'm glad that everyone who went got to see it.

I liked all of these and wish I could have a fireplace in my bedroom....

I just don't understand how this place is so clean! The beds are still made and the floors look clean!

The hallway in six is a real mindfuck, both in the picture and in real life. The floors are all crooked, sloping and twisted. The ceiling is low and just walking through here made my stomach turn.

Seriously!

Nice set, though the fish eye is a little much. It's a great touch for the room however. I love this place, woo!

Why do you use a fisheye? I can't even look at these.

grit your teeth in the face of fear. self repression is the true sign of a coward, toss your inhibitions to the wind.
