Gwyn, your whole series at Fred C. Nelles facility is very engaging for the mind and pleasing for the eyes to look at. This image is no exception. Got that gritty feel, perfect for the subdued color of this photograph. Perfect for contemplation. F/V

Thanks for checking out this series Luke. I want to go back, but the facility is in escrow and I would have to enter illegally. I'm just not quite adventurous ;-)

lol - I've been sitting on this image - not sure about it, but then when I saw you 'ever-so-clean' bathroom, I thought why not! No - this is another from the youth correctional facility and it was alarmingly dirty! Thanks for the f/v
