You Can Check-out Any Time You Like

It's always good to hear from you, Bulent especially when you're bearing a gift of your work. Your quietly thought-provoking pictures always capture my interest and I've returned to this one many times. Love your title. Regards, Jack

again I find myself following the sensei. And again, everything he says is RIGTH ON!

Thank you both, my friends, for visiting and commenting. 

Photographically speaking, you have made me use my eyes better.  

I wonder what it was about this photo that channeled Hotel California for you.

 

The half-grown footpath and decayed face of the rock make for a thoughtful, but not easily defined capture.

Jeff, thank you for your visit and the comment.

It all started when I "saw" a face, with an ambivalent expression, on the rock. (Reminds me of a smiling frog, if that helps you spot it).

The rock was near a path making it someone like a gatekeeper, hence the allegory of a hotel receptionist. We don't know where the path goes and we can not be sure if a return trip is possible... The title forces the viewer/reader to complete it with the unsaid part of the famous lyrics: "... but you can never leave!".
