The Bellwether Curtains. Second Place in Mobile Moments Challenge.
I shot this strange photo on my iPhone 6plus while on a weekend getaway in Bellingham, WA in January.
My partner and I had booked a room at the Hotel Bellwether, looking to de-stress for a few days, and to explore a new city. We got the key to our room, and when I walked in, the first thing that immediately caught my eye were the floral curtains across the room. That's a lie. The first thing that caught my eye was the complimentary chocolate on the bed, and then the curtains. They caught my eye because of the pattern on them; the kind of pattern that you aren't sure if you hate because it looks like your grandmother puked all over it, or if you love it because it's so ugly. I decided that yes, the curtains were ugly, and I loved them. The peachy/pink tones in the fabric matched the retro orange color of the armchair in the corner of the room. Seeing the two pieces together got my creative wheels turning, and I wished I had brought my digital camera to take pictures with.
