 After contemplating this competition for several days i was going to the bathroom and it struck me that the bathroom is all white... so i decided to shoot it. i used a small flashlight and 50 sec. shutter to get the effect. Thought i have an idea that it's not white enough... we'll see!

*post challenge*
Yes I was right not white enough, but at least I learned a bit about long apertures and light painting!

You got the challenge topic... but not the description. I really like the photo, but not for this challenge. DNMC... but I'm not voting. :)

I LOVE the lighting here. It's probably waay too dark for most DPCers for this challenge, but I love it. This twilight-y lighting reminds me of a bathroom image I have stored in my brain from when I was just a toddler. The light fights to get through, despite our best efforts to keep it out.

Why didn't I think of this myself who adores dappled light? The simple answer is: my tiles are black.
Yes, to me it's clearly light on white and a nice approach, even with the toilet bowl incomplete.

Really cool photo, but your background is more gray than white on my monitor.

Ok, I get it. +1 for idea & execution, -1 for moody tonal range (DNMC in spirit), +1 for interesting image = 7
