Cool Roof Ice Home Depot images
A few nice roof ice home depot images I found:
Wagon Wheel #2
Image by …-Wink-…
Some info:
It is considered to be an authentic extant example of American roadside architecture from the mid-century. The ranch-style office, motel and restaurant were originally built on the side of Highway 101 and Highway 101A (Alternate) in 1947. The office/restaurant complex incorporates a variety of roof lines, primarily low to medium pitched gables covered with wood shingles and punctuated by several decorative cupolas with weather vanes, and neon lighting. A free-standing 12-unit, two-story motel addition was completed in 1953. One of the most recognizable features of the motel was the giant neon sign that included an animated stagecoach driver and galloping horses. Today millions of motorists drive by the Wagon Wheel each year on the Ventura Freeway. The Wagon Wheel sits along side the 101 freeway at the northern edge of a 64 acre site between the Santa Clara River and the Home Depot shopping center (formerly the Esplanade Shopping Center). The site is also home to industrial buildings, a trailer park an ice skating rink, a former roller skating rink, a bowling alley and empty shopping center, all of which are scheduled for demolition and redevelopment as a European Village themed development with retail, for sale residential, condos and two high-rise towers totaling 1500 residential units.

Gret work Wendell….!
Very good clarity and colours tones!
Great POV – the grass growing thru the cracked tarmac really tells the story; ironic that a bit of authentic Americana will be torn down to build a "European-style" village !
Hi, I’m an admin for a group called as beautiful as you want, and we’d love to have this added to the group!
Cool processing work Wendell!
GRTZ,BEN
awesome shot, I’d love to spend some time in California
That place would be torn down if it were here because if a hurricane came along, that whole building would become projectiles. It’s a nice pic of it though
Signs of the times, demolition of old structures and sprouting of condominiums….. you captured and processed this so beautifully Wendell!
love this, the scene just screams "i need to be in hdr"

Wonderful control of colors.

I can’t believe you beat me to this one Wendell! I was just driving by this the other day thinking… this would make an awesome shot if I could get down there..
Very well done. If I couldn’t have done it, I’m sure glad you were the guy who did.
wowza, this how Brooklyn run down house looks like…
))
Maybe I should go to East NY and shoot some of these half houses
dramatic sky. the colors stand out. great details and fantastic hdr work!
Another cool shot!Yes Wendell I had a great day today and yesterday, off both days, back to work tomorrow. I hope you had a good day too.
Just wonderful. Well done.
great shot, so unique!
amazing capture- and info
I think it is a crime against our cultural history to destroy these marvelous old structures of such historical wealth!
thanks for doing this series cowboy,
and if you ever make it down here, I’ll let you take me to dinner at that place with the waves!!! But start saving your money now!!!!
ha ha,

Looks like it’s sitting on a fault line; it has survived the vandals fairly well; that wagon wheel would make a fine addition to someone’s yard….
Wow Wink, you can even make an eye sore look good.

very nice shot, i love it!
Love it
Saw this exhibit when it absolutely was in Dayton, Ohio! So excited to check out it once again! My youngest was in the stroller very last time and since then has grown a love for Diana and the Royals! She’s so looking forward to as is my 16 calendar year old and my mother! What on a daily basis to devote jointly….yet again! Yeah Louisville!
