The parlor area across from the lounge,
drinks are usually served here.



When I looked up and saw this in
the parlor area, I had to take the shot.

The phone is setup so when you
pick up the receiver,
you here sarcastic
funny remarks about modern living.

The panoramic setting on the camera
creates amazing splices when you use
different images.

The combinations are almost endless
with the panoramic setting

When you have different light sources
and light spectrums you can create more
variant splices

When you learn what not to do,
and develop a sense for the abstract,
and distorted, you can create beauty.
