Amendment
It’s easy to tell that the windows were filled in with brick. What’s not quite so easy to know, however, is why the one on the left was done differently from the other two.
But mysteries aren’t a bad thing, right?

Hotel Study #2
That hotel lobby provided a nice range of contrasting shapes, didn’t it?

Hotel Study #1
You didn’t REALLY think I was capable of hanging out in a hotel lobby with a camera, did you?!
(And, I feel compelled to note that I was in the lobby because we’d traveled to Nebraska for my father-in-law’s funeral; he’d died from COVID, and those designs on the sofa seemed to be – just the tiniest bit – unsympathetic to our loss.)

cold cold death
I was a junior in high school when my grandfather died; the day of his funeral was bitterly cold, with a hard wind from the north. Of course, since it was in the 1970s and I was an idiot, I wore a very short dress that day, and it took me quite a few days to thaw out. It served me right.
The weather here reminded me of that day. But at least this time, I was more suitably attired.

Winter Pool
A summer swimming pool, with sparkling water and squealing kids, holds no interest to me.
But one that’s empty, except for the ice at the deep end? Oh, yes, I’ll spend quite a long time photographing that. (The Patient Spouse will back me on this.)
