The hotel in general wasn’t all that photogenic. Too much vandalism, and too many identical rooms. But this fantastically Lynchian scene in the once plush bar made the whole endeavour well worth the effort.

Martin says
Nice!

Cheers! Pretty much my reaction when seeing it. Only trouble was the light was almost non-existent, so lots of faffing about with a couple of iPhones to make the shot possible. But definitely worth it. Really happy the way it came out.

Oh man as a Twin Peaks fan this is a dream find! Great framing as always. Such a cool shot! 🙂
Lee says
Yeah, it was definitely a good find. A real treat.
Thanks! Good to hear, ‘cos as I explained above, it wasn’t an easy photo to get.

That is such a strange find.
Even without your title it screams Twin Peaks (https://tinyurl.com/y7n8a9ex).
You did a great job with the spotlight effect too.
My minds eye sees a scene of someone sat in the chair with the frames stuttering between the castor being on and off.
Lee says
Yeah, the only thing I could think of when seeing it was Twin Peaks.
That broken castor really caught my eye too. To me at least it adds a lot to the photo, although what exactly I cant really explain…
Cheers. All credit has to go to my friend who incredibly patiently stood with 2 iPhones getting the lighting just right while I did battle with a handheld camera that isn’t exactly the best in low light.

Through the darkness of future past
The magician longs to see
One chants out between two worlds
Fire, walk with me

Perfect.
cdilla says
Nice one Cam.
Just as well you didn’t have a username of Mike or I’d have been a little creeped out 🙂

Oh my goodness, what a great scene (and well shot) – I can hear the music playing already…
Lee says
Thanks!
I know eh? Impossible to think of anything but Twin Peaks.

Big fan of twin peaks, big fan of this photo. Totally ‘Black Lodge’.
Lee says
Cheers! A big fan myself, so to find it was a real treat.
