Keeps my attention. My eyes move around, yet there's a stillness present. Love everything about this.

I could have given this a high mark. Had I voted. Jealous that your home fog/fug/clutter/gear is way more landscaped than mine. Your scorecard is lovely too.

Comment by Rankles:
This is a great composition in a difficult location and a great character shot. Love the angle, love the subject and the choice of black and white. But I absolutely hate the filter used... I'm sorry. I'm not the most old-skool here but it just doesn't look real or sincere. If a film look is desired less is more for sure. The whole image is a little over-cooked in that sense. But man am I jealous of the shot itself. I'd love to see it revisited with a different edit. Not necessarily much more different, just more natural.

EDIT Revisiting this... I've never liked in a place where the laundromat is part of daily life, but I have used one from time to time and if sitting there alone waiting for the cycle to finish is anything like waiting in a doctor's surgery or similar then I actually do kind of get that some may get a kind of peaceful stillness in waiting, especially as it's a regular chore. I'l going to judge this based on the photo itself so I'm bumping up my score as per my previous comment.

Comment by Tumbleweed:
I like this photo I just don't know how it fits with the title or this weeks subject. Maybe you could have named it, underrated abstract photography! Beautiful shot.

I love this. Normally I hate tilts, but somehow this adds to the tension of this person in the dark corner, watching the whirling machines. Masterful edit.

Comment by Rankles:
I'll be honest and say this is a little too abstract and over processed for me personally, and therefore I can't give it a high mark. As for the concept meeting the challenge, the title suggests it could have but it's hard to see it depicted in the image. I'd love to hear your thoughts about the piece regardless and then perhaps it will make more sense.

I haven't a clue what I am looking at, but it is an appealing abstract.
