Description
ONE OF MY SOLD IMAGES
.
Street view of the magnificent entrance to the Sir Francis Drake Hotel in downtown San Francisco, California, in the summer of 2009. Known to locals as The Drake, it opened its doors in 1928. Its website describes it as a sleek state-of-the-art marvel reflecting the dynamic spirit of a new metropolis emerging from the devastating 1906 earthquake. Built for $5 million. Vintage architecture, exquisitely detailed.

My thanks for another sale to a buyer in Saint Louis, Missouri. I don't know whether you are the same buyer as before, but I love that this beauty will be enjoyed for years to come. Thank you.

Thank you, Judy Vincent, for the 9.19 feature in USA Photographers. You may have heard about our totally unexpected hurricane, so I'm behind with my thank-you's. I saw a video of Niagara Falls and thought it had been shot in Houston!
John M Bailey
Congratulations on your latest sale Connie! :)
Connie Fox replied:
Thanks so much, John! I'm a little late thanking you, too, for the feature on September 19. As it turned out, we had an unscheduled weather event (Hurricane Imelda) in the Houston area and had absolutely no warning. I'm trying to catch up!
