Just practising - the yard is in Mevigissey, Cornwall and looked a bit of a mess.

The grunge is probably pushed as far as it can be. I would probably have said back it off a tad. The side wall could do with pulling out at the bottom to straighten up those pipes. And the water spray is distracting but thats what the photo is all about so no idea where you go on that one.
All in all proof you can make a very arresting and interesting picture out of a very routine activity. Never realized pressure washing needed so much obvious concentration! Well done Sir.

Well done !!! I like the grunge effect you have done. Yes, I would straighten it a bit. The leaning pipes is a somewhat distraction. Overall, very nice.

He was cleaning a couple of cast iron castings at East Somerset Railway - and certainly took the job seriously! Noticed the drainpipe slant after I posted. Agree the w after spray is a bit rubbish, but it was very fine mist, honest.Thanks for commenting Billy, on the nail as usual.

Thanks Dave, missed the slant until I'd posted it!
