The shot below reminds me of the bathroom photos I took a few weeks ago. The angle, the repetitive nature of the object. Again, I remembered to shoot from corner to corner, hoping that a diagonal picture would be more interesting.
Below you see a reflection shot that really shows what the laundry mat looks like. I like this shot for that reason.
At the laundry mat? Yes, this place has games! Here I tried to win a hat. I only spent 1.50, fifty cents a try. I'm very competitive so I thought walking away was good therapy for me! Besides, the "people" may have returned at any moment and I wanted to photograph some more.
How could I not take a picture of laundry spinning in the dryer. Here my light blue sheets and white dress shirts tumble together and offer the swirling colors as seen below. I purposely didn't crop out the second dryer because I felt that I wanted to keep the look of a laundry mat. Remembering to make the crop look purposeful, I hope it doesn't cause distraction.
And so...on this snow-day I trekked to wash my clothes. And, on this one day, I didn't mind doing my laundry.

You crack me up! Great ideas and bravery for the post today:) I liked the angle of the quarter thingys and yes, it is reminiscent of your voyage in the bathroom. You are truly odd, but in a good way:)

i would have loved to see yoy sneaking around the laundermat with your camera!
love the dress shirts in the dryer shot!
good job steve.
omg I love the pics there soooo cool.
You were really concentrating, trying to win that Hannah Montana cap, weren't you? :-) Did you use a tripod? Or set your camera on a washer? I really liked that image a lot. I also really liked the coin machines, and the dryer reflection and the swirling clothes and the "Airing My Dirty Laundry". Gee, I liked them all! Loved your commentary, too...made me smile, thinking of you sneaking your pictures in-between "people". We've all gotten really brave these last few months! Great, fun posting, Steve!
You are going to get your own WITWAI.Hope you like it
so did you win a hat or give up?
i just want to know what is in your dirty laundry!
I agree with everything that was said in the previous comments. You really are a hoot. You probably NEVER would have done this a year ago. You get an A+ for bravery and creativity.
