Googie: Seal Beach Liquor

[Brian Moore]

Sorry about the bin. Couldn't find a decent angle that showed both the roof line and the sign without having that bin, or something else unwanted, in the shot. (Pete,...about that bin: You're welcome! )

I guess maybe it could be removed in p-shop but I tried and my results were terrible, so I just left the damn thing in.

Canon 7D and Tokina 11-16 f2.8.

Is that a challenge to the experts Brian???.

Go for it Glen. I'd love to see what can be done. (I'm a dunce with post-processing.)

I'm far from an expert Brian, but I reckon someone on RPF will have the skills to do it.

That would not surprise me in the least, Glen.

Cracking night shot Brian - love the retro building

Were you out to source a refill?

 

[Glen Roberts]

I had a quick go with my limited very skills Brian, but others will do better I'm sure.

For some reason Photobucket has changed the colours[doh].

Damn! Jolly well done Old Boy! How? What tools? What artifice? What magic dids't employ?

 

[Glen Roberts]

Just messing a bout with the clone tool in PS CS3. None of this layers and blending malarkey for me.

Personally I quite liked it with it in, but...

But you want to be careful standing in the street there, the traffic whips round off Ocean Ave at a fair old lick I hear.

What were you doing there, Pete? There's no pie shop so I'm guessing Chris gave you a ride in his flying saucer.

Me and Eddie Montana go way back. And he has a great selection of hard-to-find vinyl. I was browsing and he said, "Look out there at that fella, he's in an out of that liquor store virtually every day - and now he's taking a picture of the place. He'll get mown down for sure!"

And I'm keeping quiet about how I got there! Let's just say there is something special about Sweet Jill's cinnamon rolls and the strange cosmic connection with Berliners.

I LOVE Bubbles the clown--he talks to me when I go by. (Perhaps as much as you love bins.) How could you Pete?
