January 2018 Photo Contest: "Laundry Day" (page 5 of 10)

Photo 3 in Nepal

Hi there, 🙂

I don’t have a photo that can compete with what I’ve seen here, but just to join in...

#1. The rooftops of Essaouira.

#2. San Francisco. (little lost village in Costa Rica 🙂)

in post 72 from January 18, it should read Krishna, not Śiva. It's obvious! 🤪 I hope I didn't disrupt the cosmic order of the Ramayana too much. Rama would surely be mad at me... (he's not the only one). 🤪 😏

Here! To make it up to you, a bonus (follow the arrow to post 123 (come on! 1, 2, 3...) in the discussion.

I'm in—laundry and photos, tomorrow night Sunday at midnight! 🙂

What a lineup! But that’s a good thing—after adding all these photos, I’m wiped out... totally drained 😛

Just entering to share some other spots around the world with you... my photos are nowhere near as good as the ones submitted.

During the colonial era, the Portuguese imported these washhouses... for the laundry of the women of workers who labored in the cocoa plantations. These washhouses are still used for laundry today.

This washhouse reminds me of the ones my grandmother used 60 years ago. Carassou

I’m calling it—laundry and photos, tomorrow night, Sunday at midnight!

Hi,

There was a time when "participating" in this contest clearly wasn’t the main goal. The pursuit of excellence had an authoritarian vibe... Excellence and competition still aren’t my thing, but I’m giving participation a shot.

Photo No. 3: Drying stage - Batik. Casamance, Senegal

Well, that's it, We'll say goodbye on the washhouse dock, I really want to thank you, For this long assignment... I got what I wanted and I wanted what I got,

Voting is open until Sunday, January 28 at midnight! 🙂
