I like the top one.
September 7, 2012 at 18:28
Me too.

The shadows of the top photo lead towards the distance. Nicely done.

I’ll let you in on a secret: It leads into Norman Bates’ shower.

Both great, but the top one pips it for me. I like the irony of the “warm” yellow light actually making the scene look very cold.

Thanks Richie Rich. The top one is definitely my favorite too.

I like the light in your hotel hallway
Did you have cloudy weather all the time?
September 7, 2012 at 21:24
No, we had sun too, but there was too many cloudy days. The weather changed frequently like it often does on islands in the Atlantic.

Oh….that hallway! Love it.

I love the first one.
Different types of reflections look very attractive to my eyes.

Great shots! That hallway shot is so good!
September 8, 2012 at 14:36
That first one is beautifully lit.

I like that hallway shot. Tungsten light is typically awful to work with, so you really have to work extra hard to envision situations in which to make it work out in a photograph. You’ve done it here. The warm yellow glow, reflected and contrasted in straight patterns, creates an intimate atmosphere that says “This is my home, a good home”.
September 8, 2012 at 16:51
Thanks for this great feedback Allan.
I agree: tungsten can be difficult to work with and give the photos a kind of cold and clinical look.
September 9, 2012 at 15:56
Both are beautiful. But I like the top one best because it took more creative thought to realize you had a beautiful shot indoors.
September 8, 2012 at 16:52
Thank you Myth. Judging by the comments here it seems like most people like the hallway photo best and I agree.

I enjoy them both, but that first one is so striking, with the light and warmth and reflections. Very nice!
September 18, 2012 at 21:50
Thanks. I agree: the first one is better. The second one is too ‘gray’.
