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.

A cotton gin and a clothes dryer, both abandoned. (But to be honest, if they hadn’t been abandoned, they would have held much less photographic interest.)

decisions were being made
Three sizes of ice cream cones, three sizes of ice cream cups, four sizes of drink cups: no wonder that gentleman was taking some time to decide. That’s a lot. And then, when you add in the possibility of a banana split? It must verge on being completely overwhelming.
