 Our shower "cell"... (showers are to the left of the sinks.)

Overlay of the mold growing on the outside wall of the men's shower cell... :-)

This is for Jedusi

Oh, and to answer Steve's question - yes, each element is labeled - SK2 is Sink 2. In the shower stalls themselves, you'll find SH1, SH2, etc. And somewhere else in the portfolio is WC2 WC3. (Water closet for the non-European English speakers.) Why? So when there's a problem with something, it can be identified to those who will need to fix it. I don't know if you can tell from the shot, but each sink has different style fixtures. Now that I cannot explain.

Very nice job Deb. You managed to take something very mundane and turn it into something very interesting. Good Job.

I would imagine mold is notorious near these showers. A visually subtle, but appropriate overlay, for this excellent photo.

hey deb .. hope you're well ..?? ..
obviously you're real clean tho .. these amazingly luxurious shower cell facilities look like ppl would be falling all over themselves in an effort to be first to SK1 for their daily ablutions !!!!! .. now i'll have to check the spelling of ablutions coz it doesnt look right ..
one minute later .. nah .. its right .. weird .. who uses the word ablutions nowadays .. or the word nowadays .. now i'll have to check that one too .. it looks strange as well .. nahhhh its right too ..
anyway .. enough blathering on ..
love the combination of the mould and the obviously pristine shower cell and stuff !! .. the desat and the added green is excellent ..
you should get them to print it out and hang it in there .. ppl would be assuming that either the place got a real good clean or that the photograph got mould on it ... either way it would confuse them ...
well maybe that wouldnt be such a good idea .. !! :) ...

Hey who even needs the shower ?

You could get your butt in one sink, your feet in another and have someone pour a jug of water over your head - sheer luxury . lol.

Tell me that 'SK1' doesn't really mean sink 1 . . sink 2 etc they have labelled the sinks ??!!

Is that in case you can't find them ? or are they in code so if any insurgents break in they won't know where they are ?
