So, I must say that I really don't care for this challenge. There are bound to be so many similar subjects that I think this may get boring to vote on. Hopefully I'm one of the few laundromat images. I barely thought of doing this the day before rollover (day of wouldn't work, as that is my anniversary) to get an entry in. I went with a slight blue tinge in the post processing to give a little bit of extra dimension to this.

Of note, I believe this is the first entry of mine in a long time to use my 50mm lens. I have gotten a lot of use out of it lately (it's light weight is a nice contrast to the 100-400L). It is fun to see what I can do without the aide of a zoom mechanism.
