room 100
It was 104° at 6:00 pm and I had just the tiniest bit of heat exhaustion. Setting the a/c as low as it would go was very helpful. I know you were wondering.
(Note: I’d had plenty of water that day. And it had electrolytes in it. But still that damn heat just got to me.)

I don’t know if familiarity breeds contempt as much as it breeds photo-blindness.
I would never (never, I say!) even think about photographing the bed at my house. But a hotel room’s bed? I photograph a lot of hotel room beds. They just seem to be a lot more interesting, but that also makes me realize that I am overlooking photographic subjects in my own house.

Yesterday’s post spoke about how I took a lot of photos at the hotel where I stayed in Oklahoma City. And here’s another one.
I just couldn’t stop myself.

So, the other weekend in Oklahoma City, I spent a few nights at the delightfully eccentric and quirky 21c Museum Hotel. The hotel is in a former Ford assembly plant, and it’s still got a lot of industrial details and the best natural light I’ve ever seen in a hotel.
And that’s why almost every photo I made that weekend was taken in the hotel.
I mean, you see why, right? A red blanket in an otherwise mostly monochromatic room + window light? There’s no way to pass that up.

Views from hotel rooms are something I will always photograph. (For example: San Diego; Stroud, Oklahoma; San Antonio; Oklahoma City; and Memphis.)
And here’s what I could see from a hotel room in San Francisco.
