Nada Gran


A couple nights back, Ish and I went on another photography retreat of sorts. This time we tried for long shutter shots. We've both always loved the Granada Theater sign on Greenville Avenue, so we made our way there and set up the tripod. People were buying tickets and generally disregarding us as we did our "photographer thing". It didn't take too long to get a couple good shots of the Granada. I particularly like this one because the composition of the shot switches the way you read "granada".


And in case you are curious, Granada is a city in southeastern Spain, and apparently an excellent city to name theaters after.

Invokes memories of the "Hello Mudda, Hello Fadda" song as well as a discontinued Ford model.

Yeah, I'm chock-a-block full of trivia... nothing useful... just trivia.

I'd love to see more of a forced 2-point perspective from this shot. One point being the Entrance doors at the bottom and the other point being the top of the Marque shooting towards the sky. Just a thought....
