11th - Dust & Polish

Cheltenham, Glos.

Mmm, something else which doesn't sit comfortably with Mr. Doug - a necessary evil I suppose, and a chore we all have to undertake if our houses aren't to look like some kind of squalid Dickensian hovel...still hate doing it though :o))

Maybe I need a butler...

This image makes this can of Pledge look very tall and very important, like some kind of dust killing deity or idol. A great shot Doug, you have really transformed this so well. Really like the perspective, the blue and gold and depth of field in this. "V"

LOL, you've managed to avoid the dusting by pretending to be arty :-) your wife will have you rumbled soon enough.. This is a cool perspective and for some strange reason reminds me of that vast statue near Newcastle: "The Angel of the North"

Not my favorite chore either. I like your perspective on this shot!

When you are done, head to my house! Looks like it has you on your knees!;)

I would rather scrub toilets than dust. Monumental.

I would lay London to a brick, we have more dust down here than you :) When your through...

Very clever shot beautifully executed - super sharp.

Well I like polishing my coffee table and loudspeakers - but with proper wax polish... can't be doing with the squirt and wipe stuff... 'cept the telly of course - some things are mandatory :o)

New bigger can, so you have a lot of cleaning ahead of you!

I made a pledge never to touch this stuff ;-)
Mairéad11-Feb-2010 19:16
Right Doug, when you're finished can you head over here and do mine?
Good shot.

C'mon over Doug & bring the Pledge!
Nice shot here! :)
