Carwash

Boy, they don't come more bare bones than that, do they? :-) Neat find and so well captured.

Timeless...you really don't see these anymore. I like how minimal this is.

This one is strictly utilitarian. Don't think I have ever run across an open-air car wash. Neatly captured Grant!

This photography is warm, I love, you have a very good light and a very good angle to take a beautiful picture

No fuss about this at all , no advertising even :)

Me gusta en especial el cielo, esas linias que hacen las nubes resalta la foto, saludos

this looks quite spooky to me. The building is rather ominous. LIke its got some dark secret. Good shot though!

Nice capture . Archie has all the latest conveniences by the looks of it .

A very simple basic carwash, nicely captured by you as-it-is. Well done.

Pretty low budget operation. Nice shot though.

I always had a hard time getting my truck in the door. best...jerry

It looks like a crypt and the pipes and lines over it seem like some crazy experiment or perhaps that is just my mood today. It does seem bunker like and a car wash is not something I would associate with it. One could attribute all sorts of uses to this structure and that is its charm, if one can use such a word in conjunction with this blank looking rectangle. It would have been fun if you had called it untitled. Terrific shot.

A fine shot of this 'bare bones' car wash. I like the angle you chose. Looks good to me.

nice image - I like it

It has almost got an igloo feel to it because of the white blocks.
It does look lonely and rather odd - I think the absence of advertising adds to that, as we're so used to seeing adverts everywhere we look (sadly).

I've seen hundreds of these here in So.Cal. but never this clean and simple. Uh, where is the big brush?

it's smaller than a container, (little bit larger than a door !?!?) and it also has an heating system inside !!!
cooool find Grant you are great!

any photograph with a hose in it is an automatic favorite with me. in this one though i really like the way the wire lines are echoed by the jet stream.

So long since I have seen the old style car wash like this, superb perspective and lighting as is your norm

A black and white in very good grey for a photograph.

a faaabulous criss-crossing of lines!! from the telephone wires, the electrical wires, to the lines in the brick wall and jet trails in the sky!! wonderful!!!

My dear Grant - you are putting Archie 'on the map'. Another winning Tmax100 image.

Can't beat the old hand-wash, an excellent shot Grant.

This is the old style --they don't make 'em like this anymore.

Love it. You've really gathered an impressive collection of unusual buildings and businesses! Would love to see a well-culled 'best of' portfolio at some point showcasing some of the most unique (like this).
