As usual Tony, your image is impeccable. Every single one of your images I look at I wish I had your gift for transfering life onto film to paper and to here for us all to enjoy.
So on to this image: its excellent of course. I can imagine the grin on your face as you examined your contacts for the first time and saw him looking right at you. And you are absolutely right, it shows the awkwardness we all experience everytime we go to use a urinal.
My final comment is to express disappointment at the comments by Tom, who is an excellent and experienced photographer in his own right. To say that there are urinals all over the world where anyone could take the same picture is something you expect from a rank beginner. One of the earliest things i taught myself was that I should never look at a picture and say "hah, If I was in that situation I could have taken that" because the fact is that I wasn't there and I didn't take it.
