A color photograph captured with a 1970s Hasselblad 500 C/M medium-format camera using a Zeiss Planar 80 mm f/2.8 lens and on-camera hard flash, shot on Kodachrome 64 film for authentic analog color and film grain texture. Scene description: The image shows an motel bathroom, moments after someone has showered. The mirror is fogged, catching a flash reflection that reveals fingerprints and moisture trails and a barely visible feminine silhouette coming out of the shower, reaching to the towel draped at the sink. The sink counter is cluttered but quiet — evidence of recent ritual: – a red lipstick without cap, lying sideways near the drain, – a few crystals (amethyst, rose quartz, citrine) glinting faintly, – a half-full glass of wine, – a gold chain tangled on the porcelain, – a perfume bottle tipped slightly, catching the flash reflection, – a lip print on the rim of the glass. The tiles are warm beige-yellow, textured, with grout lines illuminated sharply by the flash. A silk strap from a discarded dress hangs over the sink edge, soft and out of focus in the foreground. The reflection in the mirror captures only the glow of the flash, a trace of condensation, and the faint outline of movement — nothing clear, just presence.
