My goodness, but we're getting to know you on such a personal level in this challenge! Ha!ha!ha! Seriously John, this is a wonderful example of your creative prowess. As usual, I am inspired.---Deb

Inspirational work, John. I like the casual feel you've captured here for what is for most of us a daily event. The choice of black and white grounds the image in reality. Great idea for an observational piece. Congrats.

Good question. Thing is I have this remote which you can program to just about fly to the moon. I programmed it to shoot at 2 second intervals 99 shots in all. Set it up and showered. REMEMBERING that Joan hates wet floors I covered it with towels so that I could simply take them to the dryer and remove all evidence of water on the floor (she seems allergic to water on the floor (in a BATHROOM????)). This was the best shot imo. Fremiet

Who wiped up the floor after leaning out to hit the shutter.:D
Anyway, nice pic. dave v

Wow! The beauty of a human body in such a personal action! Elements were against you but it is well done. The pose, B&W processing, the lighting, even the wall helps to make this picture a really good one. Each element adds a layer to the depth: 1st left elbow, then the face with the soap under the chin, the right arm and finally the white wall.

Is someone noticed that he looks like a slim Santa Clause under the shower? :)
