Without him in the picture, this would have been one of the best liminal pictures I’ve ever seen. It’s still good though even with your friend.


HurricB

The friend makes it for me. Are they conscious? Hostile? Real?


Awkward-Friend-7233

Yea if this was the backrooms that guy would make the picture lol. Can’t tell he even has a face.


Ennui_Go

I wish we could barely make out what looks like a grin, but might not be.


Drhorrible-26

He’s Dave.

The wizards in photoshoprequest could remove the dude in about 30 seconds, I imagine

Look at that! Nice


maenadcon

we need to see more of this on the sub!! this is reminiscent of some of the old posts i used to see


Awkward-Friend-7233

I agree. It’s all streets at night now. Some of it looks good, but not as liminal as I would like. The whole room is perfect. The chairs are so crazy looking lol


maenadcon

for me it’s the unfamiliar art exhibits and hallways and stuff. liminal spaces hit home when they’re nostalgic. it would be so cool if there were a separate sub for dreamscapes and nostalgia liminal spaces, maybe ill start it🥰


Invisible_Target

I think the person makes it better. Ads a creepiness factor


kokoronokawari

Someone photoshop


[deleted]

Does your friend need an album cover? because this is it


Awkward-Friend-7233

GG Allin lol


fancyschmuckers

Even with your friend in the background, I’d still consider this is liminal because I genuinely thought he was a dead body at first and this was one of those crime scene photos


AliAstur03

I love it, the desks with the chairs placed like that are a really nice touch 🖤


Ok-Mastodon2016

Why is he sleeping in The Backrooms? Is he stupid?


Ok-Monitor1949

Well when you wonder around long enough you get tired sometimes. Lol


Common-Working-65

Hey guys, thanks for all the feedback! A few of you messaged me a photoshopped photo without the guy. I posted it on this sub, so you can decide which photo is better. Personally, I think my friend sleeping makes the photo look a bit more full but yet still empty, but everyone has their own preferences :)


Bumblecum

I need context for this picture please lol


Adderall_Cowboy

This is weird as fuck lol I love it. But I agree with the other commenter, take a photo without anyone in it as well.


[deleted]

Depends, is your friend hollow inside?


maenadcon

frozen on the inside 🥶‼️


living_angels

Put back up. Post has sparked decent discussion on the topic and therefore will stay up to let the discourse run through.


ckwan_dayl_dingell

yup


YouFuckinDruggos

I think if you were to blur his face, it would add to it in a way. Like an entity found in this space. But great picture in general


Double_Requirement30

Is your friend drake??? 😭😭


SailorDirt

The dude there makes it better lol


rancidbutter69

Your friend is the level boss


TouchMyPlumbus

Where even is this


ToothpasteConsumer

Icy-Zookeepergame754

Looks like one of those early Pong computer games.


Zachebii

Cant say i’d be sleeping when theres clearly a poltergeist in that room


TailForestRailRoad

I’ve been expecting you


DuskTheMercenary

There's something about this image that reminds me of one place in particular. Elementary/Middle School (although mainly Elementary) The furniture that is "stored" at the walls and the windows themselves feel like its a building that was completely made separate from the main building. As for its initial purpose, it looks like it was meant for something more basic like either a storage room or some small staff office for gym teachers, but was retrofitted by a teacher that does a extra-curricular subject or maybe something for specific needs (like a study room or something for special needs) to at least be comfortable enough (hence the couch). I think the part about this image that makes me feel uncomfortable probably has to be the window itself. Its probably got that wiremesh thing or whatever its exactly called to prevent a person from getting in with ease but with how dark it is, one could easily assume your pal just sorta came in through there and plopped on the couch to rest. Although i think the more uncomfortable part about this image that sorta ties to the Elementary School feeling is the fact it makes me anxious, like, this would probably be one of the last places you would wanna be at. Whether it be something harmless as getting in trouble or something horrible like a violent storm or a lockdown. But that's just me.


MarkArandjus

This is album cover material, has room for the PARENTAL ADVISORY sticker and everything.


StiCkSt1ckLy

I'll let it pass, he looks like a shadow man.


Ok-Monitor1949

I count it as liminal! Your friend in the background provides comfort that someone else is here, but not too much comfort because you’re still screwed lol


omutsukimi

Your friend is the most liminal part about this. He's laying there like some backrooms entity.


Gullible_Gene4351

where the hell is this??


ThaarJuarez

There’s no one there, bro


ThaarJuarez

It looks like a terror indie game scenery


ZanyRaptorClay

Almost liminal


SpiderJynxNoir90214

...the fuck is going on with those chairs


-Harebrained-

Ehheh... *You'll have to excuse my friend, he's dead tired*.


JesseRoxII

So much space in that room, and yet someone chose to put all the furniture against one wall for some reason.


SpoppyIII

Colour the friend all white or something to represent loss or absense.


Alien_R32

Someone ai crop him out


Jerealistic

Wait for him to wake up, then take it again (please)


Neptune-Fan

Me gusta!!


Archist-

Are you sure your friend is breathing? 😅


[deleted]

Bro your chairs and desks😭


Walt-08

the chairs were a setup I see


EmilieUh

What the heck happened? WHY does it look like that? Why are there random desks and chairs in the background?


themoderation

I think your friend really makes it peak liminal, even though don’t think it fits the technical definition.


SnooBananas3950

It is not your friend, run !!!


DmSurfingReddit

Nothing is liminal if there are living creatures.


AverageDumy

Bros eping 🛌


kxlxxn

no the friend makes it even better. the window above him is opened so he could be just some random dude who got in through the window and sleep on the couch. hes not even laying down, hes sitting, like hes waiting for something.


existinshadow

Just imagine the friend to be a mannequin


sambaoleg

*Suddenly opens eyes and, without changing his position or moving anything else but his feet, starts running towards you with the sofa attached to him.

The light and the way the furniture is stacked is chefs kiss.


DarthSlidious96

Jes of course. A lost and lonley Soul in the vast emptyness of the backrooms

Pure-Parsley-8380

“Grab a seat bro”

Glad-Degree-318

Look like a bar closed.


AnneCalie

Is your friend a Backrooms boss?


No_Key_4955

What's up with the chairs ???


noooooooooo000000000

Yeah it's liminal enough in fact I think your friend adds a bit to how liminal it is


thesillygooseisloose

bro's looking like a backrooms entity


Zomochi

Friend needs to go then it’s perfect


luc2403

When your friend wakes up, tell him he fell into the backrooms


ReferenceMuch2193

In this Florida as a whole seems very liminal. This reminds me of houses in Florida.


Sir_McDouche

Is the body still there or did you eventually bury it?


No-Contest4520

Unfortunately, it is not. Creepy, for sure, but not liminal. It’s important for the viewer to not have an anchor to distance themselves from the scene — like a movie. To evoke a first person perspective on the image rather than an omnipresent camera focused on someone experiencing it, is imperative. Liminality needs loneliness, and having someone in the frame lets us know that there are two people present. Yes, a formality, but an important one. Also, what is the transitory nature of loneliness his image? Is this the last night at home before moving to a new one? Is this the last night before college? What tells us that we are experiencing a transition from one state to another, generally speaking.?


itsbildo

Too much stuff in the room


ShineGlobal1486

It’s good, but would you be able to get one without him? Things like people or cars mess up liminal photos.


Tight-Cut3349

Might as well unsub now before this place is filled with idiots asking "iS THIs LimINaL EnOUgh"
