The 'corridor' beyond the door is fake! It's just a picture, but very realistic!

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I could have sworn that was a real corridor! This is a beautiful shot, and shows a room I wish I had! V

Fantastic with illusion of the trompe-l'oeil painting beyond the door. Superb composition, exposure and details, too. BV.

Chris, sitting at our desks in front of the Computer, isn't half so pleasant, as sitting in this library surrounded with books.

Very, very good shot. V

I hope the books are not fake too, just gorgeous leather covers -- unless they are used to hide jewels and secret pirate maps.
Frank Wilson22-Oct-2011 01:01

A great shot of this beautiful and lavish interior. The "corridor" does look realistic. Looking at the exif I know you did this hand held, so Bravo! "V"
globalgadabout21-Oct-2011 14:11
a densely packed frame brings a cosiness to this lavish interior...the corridor painting is certainly convincing...interesting too that they keep some crockery in their library...V

John Reynolds LRPS21-Oct-2011 05:33
Excellent capture. That corridor painting is impressive, a bit like the violin painting at Chatsworth.
Raymond Ma21-Oct-2011 04:17
Wonderful fine details in this interior shot. The picture corridor is so
very realistic and it makes your dof seem to go on forever. V
William Vogt21-Oct-2011 03:00

Perfectly framed and executed. You really would never know that the corridor is fake - I wonder if anyone has walked into it. ~V~

Perfect captureP: composition+light+colors+details! Well done! BV
janescottcumming21-Oct-2011 00:09
I was going to comment on how great the view was down the corridor and how neat it was that you captured the dog...until I read your comment! Are the books real or are they painted too? Nice shot Chris.
Stephanie20-Oct-2011 23:34

I was in Bath on October 14 & 15. Seems as though we came close in crossing paths!
