We have begun to get submissions for the Contest, but we wanted to prime the pump some more by showing off some stuff we really like in our own house. This is our bathroom in the house we have on Long Island. The photograph is by John Berg, an architect and friend, who took a number of beautiful photographs in Cuba last year with his digital camera. This one is of an empty swimming pool that is shaped like a piano at an abandoned estate on the coast.




GREAT shot, John!
For any other enthusiasts of the haunting imagery of vacant swimming pools, the Paul Kopeikin Gallery in LA offers J. Bennett Fitts' "No Lifeguard on Duty" color photography, from January 7 - February 4, 2006.

That's beautiful! But now that's making think that bathtubs should be made in those swimming pool colors. No. Not as some kind of custom thing, but as a default. Wouldn't that be a gas? And no, not where the sink and toilet match it. Just the tub. The sink should be different from the tub, I think.
Unfortunately, we haven't gotten around to renovating the bathroom yet -- and our tub IS that color.
Trust me, it's not pretty.
Is there any special framing consideration for art hanging in a bathroom? We were thinking of photos in ours but I wasn't sure b/c of the humidity.
