So, the thing is, my friend Josh likes to hang around mens' rooms. Wait, that sounds wrong. What I mean is that he likes to sneak into bathrooms and take pictures. No, no, it's not like that. It's just a fetish he has about bathroom photography. My friend Lanette has the same fetish, so they figured they'd get together and... wait, I'm making a mess of this.
Some photographers (my self included) try to slip in a self portrait whereever they go, to remind them of the experience. Lanette has this thing where she shoots a snap inside a bathroom. Apparently, Josh decided that that idea was "awesome sauce", and they've been doing it ever since. I guess peer pressure got to me. :) This is from a shoot I went on with both of them last winter.

That's a fun shot. But shooting restrooms is not as odd as you would think. I actually have some images from 2001 from the ladies room at the Library of Congress. There was no one in there at the time, and there were great old wooden stall doors and older fixtures. Don't know if the rest rooms are still like that, but try there next time you go to DC.
ReplyDeleteShooting restrooms does seem weird but every once in awhile you come across a nice photo op.
