In a previous post I spoke about always having my phone on me at the ready to spot a photo opportunity. Well, this time I want to talk about spotting beauty in unusual places.  I found a very unusual place last week. The bathroom of a car garage.

Pissed.

I don’t know what attracted me to this shot.The light streaming through the window, lighting up this dark, dank place has a cleansing quality. The highlights are completely blown and detail is completely lost on the floor, technically not great but adds emphasis to the main feature. Bathed in an almost holy light, the bricks draw the eye to the main feature, this majestic… no, wait, it’s an old, grubby urinal. The strange S shaped piping underneath looks almost like some sort of occult piece of design. Or maybe it’s just a picture shot on my phone of a garage loo.
