I did some cheating on this one. I made the moon bigger, and I Photoshopped in an extra window, because there was a large blank area in the middle of the wall that killed the picture. This is the side of the building that faces the beach. Can you believe how small the windows are?

This is an old hotel about a block from the beach. It's been closed for a long time, because it's unreinforced brick and no longer up to code. I take lots of pictures of it, and I usually Photoshop out the last "n" in the sign, and it becomes the Hotel California.

Blatant self-promotion:

Love the shadow on the wall. The moon seems a bit out of place. Overall a very nice shot.

You made some very nice shots of this building. Really a very nice shadow of the tree.

Think here the wall is just too white. Perhaps it look even bettter withou a moon.

This is really a good shot. I like the comparisons you have added, of the other views, it highlights how different angles (and a bit of PS magic) can change the picture completely.

Looks like a cool building. I like the soft feel this has to it and I would not have known that you put another window on the building.

I like the crop used on this shot, the glow of the building with the shadow of the palm tree looks great.
