Prague '86: Room with a View

Prag '86: Zimmer mit Aussicht

 

#3: Before I take you on a sightseeing tour of Prague in autumn 1986 I want to show you the strange view from the hotel room and the backyard of the hotel (the next photo) we stayed in.

 

The view out of the window in this picture is actually a view "into" the hotel itself. I took it from the oriel window and one can look at the respective oriel in the adjacent room and the one in the room next to that room. The last oriel window leads outside.

 

Obviously this "architectural pattern" was only repeated for three neighbouring rooms. Otherwise, I suppose, one could have looked through all the rooms on one floor ad infinitum.

 

Taken in October 1986 with my mother's Canon AE-1 and reworked in Lightroom and Color Efex Pro.

 

You can find the other photos (more will follow) in my album: www.flickr.com/photos/94635768@N04/albums/72157663809358483 .
