This past weekend I had my first video shoot in which I was the one holding the camera, and my gosh was it heavy. When you look at them — or even pick one up for a moment — they seem so light. But after 12 hours of holding one up without letting it shake my arms are sore. Very sore. The type of sore where it hurts to even be, and all I can think of is how I wish I could spend the day in a soothing, hot bath preferably with a killer view. So here are some bathroom photos of lovely places to soak it up. Which would you prefer?

If you’re planning to redo your bathroom and want to situate your bathtub to take advantage of the views through your windows, positioning is key. While many prefer the look of a bathtub running lengthwise along a window, it’s not the most comfortable from which to enjoy the view because you have to crane your neck to the side to look out the window. At first, that may not seem like a big deal, but after a while it can be a bit tiring on your neck — especially if you’re taking a bath to soothe it.

Positioning your tub so that it faces your window straight on is by far the best when it comes to soaking up views. If you’re not a fan of that look, you may want to consider a square or circular bathtub that allows you to soak it up from any side, giving you far more options when it comes to enjoying the views.
