037: Hotel Peeper


Hotel Peeper, originally uploaded by gingerpig2000.

Peeper.

Funny things happen in hotels, many long corridors and an odd mix of people free of the restrictions they might feel back in their normal environment. I still feel a kind of alien, ghostly quality about hotel corridors, and i wanted to explore this in an image.

Notice how the white light that forms most of me has no form or texture, only an outline, pushing your eyes away, letting them seek other objects to focus on. This use of empty space and strong images affects how our eyes respond, and is the same for writing - it is just a pity that the visual side is such a poorly valued part of writing courses.
