No - that's the name of the restaurant (and Facebook page) that the photo is posted to.
It just seems like it's in the Laguna Chapala "area"... but I can't find anything to back that up. |
Did you ask a question you don't know the answer to?
Come on that isn't fair.

The contributing factor to the lighting is the "golden hour" time it was shot. Look at the long shadows. For what it's worth the shadows indicate
the view is looking to the north.
The editing of the image was on the vibrant side to my eye. I would have liked the structure to be in focus, but now I'm nit picking.

TDK,
Yes, I, too, thought the pic was taken at that magical hour (or less) of golden light.
Window frame in focus?....Yep, coulda set with a smaller aperture, used a tripod for the slower shutter speed... 
But I thought that the window frame and adobe had enough "distinction" to see what it was, yet allowed the wood and adobe to "softly" frame the view,
rather than compete with it.....and that the man-made object was "fading/vanishing/deteriorating" as opposed to the "permanence/longevity/stronger
quality of nature's creation" of the mountains and landscape.
But that is just how I saw it.....we each have our interpretations and preferences for such a "story".
What is important is that we enjoyed the pic for what it is, aside from the geo-query.
Don't believe everything you think....

To each his own. I'm guessing it wasn't a deliberate decision.
I wish I had been there to shoot it.

I agree. It looks like it's been HDR'ed. But not too aggressively.

Definitely looks like an HDR photo. You see a lot of HDR photos since the newer cameras including the Apple iPhone now have the feature built in.
