Artist's Comments

For one reason and another, i spent a lot of a novemeber weekend sitting in this hotel room. It was a really depressing one in some ways. The fact that it was chucking it down outside and felt like sub zero didn't help either. What really brightened it up for me was the fact that we'd taken our (very cheap) acoustic guitar which i spent a long time just playing. I'm not particularly good at guitar, but i do love to play. Obviously i've tried to show this with the colours.

mini tripod used.

yeah i'd have liked the mirror to have been further over to the edge of the wall though so i could have got something more interesting in. Although it kind of shows how uninteresting the room was.

I like the colouring, what with the guitar bringing the only brightness to the blue room - very clever.

Yeah the colouring of the guitar makes it stand out, and I love the use of mirrors. Very blue indeed.

HEY...This is pretty smooth Rich.
Love that mirror stuff, really adds a whole new space to things, and it also helps in framing something more focal and important.
The light colours are so soft and beautiful.
great job :D Fantastic

Ooh I like it. It's weird because at first I was like, "oh a nice black and white photo but wait---huh? what's this color all about?" And then I was like, "Oh some of it is black and white and some of it is color but wait, is it all color but just....not....colorful?" And then I just stared at it a while admiring you because you can play guitar and i can't, and I forgot all about the picture itself, even though it is awesome.
