[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
OK, this needs a little explanation.

I, like probably most TE members like travelling. And seeing new things, getting new experiences, learning about the world are major reasons for travelling.
But few of us have the energy to keep going all the time while awake. Unavoidingly some time is spent on a hotel room, maybe having a bath, reading, watching TV on a language you don't understand, staring ceiling...
And the weather is not always favourable either.

Just leaving for a short vacation in Germany and Luxembourg. Forecasts promise rain. Let's see how much there will be 'Learning about the Hotel Room'.
Dedicated to all travellers.

Hi Kari.

Jajajajajaja, a nice idea for everybody who spent too much time in the hotels on Holidays...

Nice compo.

Rgs, Oscar

Hi Kari,
I like the photograph for its colors, composition and the drama. But I would have prefered to see it in a horizontal frame...more drama perhaps.
TFS,

:D excellent dedication and I suspect you might get some quite magnificent shots of the interiors of cafés and other sheltered places here in Luxembourg... or then just the opening ceremonies under rain :D
Lovely composition for this one! We feel as if trapped in the lower space, works brilliantly with the idea :)
TFS! Julia

An artistic shot , nice idea well realized , seems to me a painting , well done.
Stefano.

Nice composition for this still life, a genre which seems to be neglected nowadays. The combination of the corner, the lamp and the mirror is nicely observed. A good example of how to produce a nice result with ordinary things.

All the best,

Emmanuel

Hi Kari!

Interesting detail in very warm colors. Thank You for charming atmosphere of this shot.

Regards

Ingenious idea Kari. The still life with the light/shadow play along with a reflection make an interesting if fairly abstract composition. Happy Travelling.
Kath

really nice composition, It has a good contrast and a very interesting point of view. Thanks JR

Hi Kari,
this is wonderful composed picture. Very well done. When I shoot a picture in a hotel room or something like that there are allways my feet visible in the foreground... because I do the pictures laying on the bed ;))
Have a nice day,
Tomi

Hello Kari,
What a nice thought for all us travellers who are often called to spend the night in such places. I've never thought of taking such a photo but I like your idea a lot. I also appreciate the way you've chosen to show us a detail rather than the whole room. This is almost what one would see while lying in bed. I'll be in such a room tomorrow night as I will be sleeping in Orly Sud (Paris) before taking a very early flight for Tamanrasset on Sunday morning... maybe I'll try to take a picture of the room!.
Hope you are enjoying your vacation in Germany and Luxembourg.
Regards, Brigitte

Nice shapes, Kari, and well seen. The light is warm and gives a oft glow to the picture. The fact that the wall is coming towards us, creates a nice line as well. So there are quite a few geometrical elements in the shot

Well done, good minimalistic catch with simple, daily life objects, but combined very well.
Nice colours, exposure and details.
Texture on the wall is nice.
Tfs.

Hi Kari,
Great work, very nice ideia ! Very good shapes and shadows. Excellent colours and light.
TFS and greetings
Aires

Hi Kari,

Well done and happy travels!
A smile
