I hope you're really proud of this picture because you've captured so much in it. The flashes of color add a degree of excitement, but even in greyscale this shot has great structure and movement.

Good work!

Hank

Thank you, Hank. I really appreciate your confirmation of my discovery. I'd been dissatisfied with my laundry shots and hadn't posted any. But on the weekend I happened to notice that the lower part of an unsatisfactory vertical shot held quite a nice horizontal crop!

Thanks, Pam. We were told that the laundry men have a system of making hidden marks on the laundry so that somehow they manage to deliver it to the right owners! In this apparent chaos that seems almost impossible.

Greetings, Marilyn

And if your husband likes to go to the barber shop this will be the right address.

I'm reading the book Shantaram and was glad when I came across this photograph of yours. It helps to illustrate this already very descriptive and colourful book.
