Woman takes selfie in modern Vladivostok office lounge

This indoor photograph, taken with a slightly downward angle and rotated 90 degrees, captures a reflective surface framed by a decorative border. The setting appears to be a modern commercial space, possibly a café, bookstore, or library, given the visible bookshelves and textual cues. In the center of the reflection, a person is visible from the chest up, holding a dark-colored smartphone to take a selfie. They wear a white turtleneck under a black sleeveless garment, and their long, dark hair has lighter highlights. Behind them, a white bookshelf filled with books can be seen, along with a potted plant. The most prominent object is a rectangular frame or border made of thick, twisted ropes or fabric, alternating in red and light blue colors. This frame occupies the foreground and midground, creating a visual boundary around the reflection. Surrounding the reflective surface are light grey metal cabinets or lockers, some with small magnets or stickers attached. A bright yellow vertical strip is visible on the left side of the frame. The floor is tiled with light grey squares. Visible text in Russian appears on the black garment of the reflected person. It reads "Кофе Машина" (Coffee Machine) and "Маршрут построен в лето" (Route built for summer). These phrases suggest a theme or branding related to coffee and a summer journey, fitting for a cafe or travel-themed establishment in Vladivostok, Russia. The overall impression is a casual, self-referential moment within a cleanly designed interior.

The image, originally rotated, shows a young woman taking a mirror selfie indoors. She is reflected in a large mirror, smiling gently at the camera held in her right hand. She has dark hair and is wearing a light-colored turtleneck top under a black sleeveless garment or dress. The mirror itself is bordered on the top and bottom by a decorative twisted rope or garland, alternating in red and light blue colors. The background, also reflected in the mirror, consists of several white bookshelves filled with numerous books, indicating a setting like a library, bookstore, or a cafe with a literary theme. Some decorative items, including what appears to be a vase with dried flowers and a potted green plant, are also visible on the shelves. The floor visible in the reflection is a light grey. Several lines of white Russian text are prominently displayed on the mirror's surface. Reading from top to bottom, the text includes: 1. "КИНОТЕКА" (KINOTEKA), meaning "Cinematheque" or "Film Library," accompanied by a red star logo that reads "Вход свободен" (Vkhod svoboden), meaning "Free entry." 2. "Кофе Машина" (Kofe Mashina), meaning "Coffee Machine." 3. "Маршрут построен в лето" (Marshrut postroyen v leto), which translates to "The route is laid out for summer" or "The route is built into summer." This text suggests the location is a cultural or commercial space in Vladivostok, possibly combining elements of a film library/cinema with a coffee shop, perhaps with a seasonal or travel-related promotional theme for summer. The overall mood is calm and inviting.
