The morning machiatto didn't make the cut. :)

My impending move to Marina means I won't be
making midnight runs to my favorite 24 hour

Amazing shot of mundane, with this composition, lighting and DOF.

Love it. The way you've used the light to make the metal of the coin chute look greasy, gives it real texture. Nice work Chris!

Everytime when I read Judes comments, I feel like I am in a romance novel. ::tosses her books away::I will not need those anymore I just read Judes comments. ;) Nice story matching the wash-machine

Mundane - maybe the act of doing this chore .. but not the image you took. The perspective is very well done. I like the focus on the coin slot with the machine looming there waiting, ever so impatiently, for you to fill her up... satisfy her .. er.. needs, whims, fancies, desires.. Until you move.. and find another .. and forget all about her. She can feel that you're pulling away .. moving on.

Sigh ... men!

I cannot imagine becoming attached to a washing machine...but if I had to I guess I could try :>)

50 cents more expensive then what I have to pay. Nice word, a new one for me.

This is a great shot. Really nice b&w. I hate coin op laundry but love this.
