REFLECTION An elderly man quietly loads his washing into a machine, unaware of his humble observer.

WATCHING, WAITING
The Laundromat is a quiet place where people wait patiently for their washing- oft reading or catching up on study or generally just enjoying the solitude, observing the cyclic movement of their clothes drying. Most appear completely unaware of the rattle and tumble of the old washers. The constant hum of the machines and the swishing of water and fabric is soothing, an unexpected serenity within an industrial work place.
