The Cemetery from Rm 1408

Buenos Aires, Argentina

In order to get the all important landscape shot of Buenos Aires, we had to sneak to the top of a hotel, pretending to be a guest (with a big HD camera), sign in under an assumed name and provide a room number.  1408 was the first one to come to mind, having just seen the movie in my significantly less expensive hotel down the street.  (My lies are always sort of predictable and obvious.)  

Anyway, the shot immediately over the side of the roof top pool featured the cemetery where Eva Peron now lies.  

Not a great shot, but we were under pressure to perform before we were given the boot.  Which seems to sum up most of my shooting experiences.  I feel like Im always buying time, wondering if Ill get the goods before the moment is gone.  And always trying to stretch that moment longer.
