In days gone by.
This was taken today with Canon 450D at a Totara Estate event "A Victorian Farm Comes Alive"
This was outside against a green corrugated iron fence. I thought it would look more authentic in b/w but could not resist leaving the soap its original colour :)

I remember being bathed in a tub like that, but it was a bit bigger in diameter, and with straighter sides.
You made a nice job of it, Eve. Brought back ancient memories :-).

That soap makes a big difference Lyn. That was a good idea. Nice capture. Are the clothes dry yet?

I do agree with Ron but this is a great shot and I love your presentation. The tones are very good and I love the Little splash of color. Very nice work.

I thought you might be airing your dirty laundry. Thanks for keeping it clean. :) Good work on the photo Lyn and a good b/w presentation. Nice clarity and details.

I love this, with just the bar of soap in color! Great presentation... My mother used to hang her laundry, she said it made everything smell so fresh. But she drew the line about the tub and washboard.
