Like this one.
I came across it in a hotel room far from home. And while we waited for the heater to beat back the minus-6-bazillion-degree temperatures outside, I found myself admiring the wall-mounted lamps.
The graphics spoke to me, whispering shades of Tron, the IBM logo, and Ikea - albeit without the meatball lunch special. Some unknown designer somewhere had clearly read the creative brief with care.
So of course some random photography was called for. Not because it made any sense, but precisely because it did not. Because random moments both close to and far from home are often punctuated by the strange things we see in the margins.
And I’ve apparently made it my mission to slow those moments down and peer into those margins more than might seem reasonable.
At the very least, I end up with a memorable photo. But we all know none of this was ever really about the photography, anyway.
