A Warm Fire by the Pool at the Custom

May 25th, 2008 in California, LA, Travel |

The LA nights tend to get a little cool, so there is nothing like an open pit fire to take the chill away. This is the hotel I stayed at in LA called the Custom Hotel (Stuck in Custom Hotel? Too easy!). I found it on this cool new boutique hotel site called TabletHotels.com. The site has the tagline “Hotels for Global Nomads”;, and aren’t we all?

It’s right by LAX and surprisingly inexpensive. They have this trendy club and bar (upstairs there) by the pool…

I love everything about this one. There is just enough fire detail, the pool color is just enuff reference to a cool color for balance, the composition, no people, the detail, sharpness. Your awesome!

hey trey,

Just wanna thank u for being such an inspiration in my life…. My photographic life, recently. I think that both u and Scott kelbys sites are the 2 I visit the most and I wanna thank u both for it. I don’t know if u know anyone who has ever gone thru a divorce, but it is a tough time … Like a death really. I have recaptured my passion for photography after a ten year break. U and Scott (and a few other people) have really been a great support for me …as strange as that may sound. It has given me a nice focus outside of work and all the personal stuff.
Thanks for your great photographic inspiration!
