Beautiful soft light makes the motel shot. As for the sad story, I think your reaction was perfectly natural and acceptable human behaviour. It was a remnant, I'm sure, of our prehistoric past.
Back in the forest if we heard a rustling or saw movement out of the corner of our eye we didn't have he luxury of fully assessing the situation and making a calm, rational decision. Doing so might lead to becoming a large beast's dinner. Even if the "bad thing" might happen one in a hundred times, from an evolutionary perspective the one who reacts ~now~ and asks questions later would have been more likely to pass on his genes.
