Monterey Inn's at Night

Here are a couple inns along the shore line in Monterey that my wife always comments about when we pass them. We stayed at the Lovers Point Inn not as pretty but you can't beat the view. I shot the inn's a lot later than I would usually shoot. It was an experiment I boosted the ISO up to 1600 and shot a series bracket shots for HDR. I was worried about the noise because HDR images usually have noise even at lower ISO's. I was pleasantly surprised. You don't know if you don't try. One thing I love about night time photography is the surprises like the light on the trees in the first image.
