The neon light of the street lamps illuminates this intersection in Hamburg's Hafencity.
While guests quietly enjoy a cocktail in the ASTOR Film Lounge, the passing cars leave their streaks of light on the intersection, polarizing with the calm behind the lobby's large and garishly lit windows.
The light drizzle that dampens the streets that night creates slight reflections that add to this image.
The Astor Film Lounge is the first cinema in Hamburg's newly developed Hafencity district. It conveys the glamour of bygone times when cinemas were still called film palaces with dignity. In reclining seats, the guest here receives a welcome cocktail and a waitress service at the seat.
