I really liked it too. However, I can't say that doing laundry is a "habit" per se ... Anyway, I still marked it pretty high and expected it to come in the top 10 (and it did, congrats librodo).
I like this image also but I think laundry is more of a nessesity not so much a habit I didnt vote on this challenge but it is a great action shot!
Great image anyway well done!
Also thought that doing laundry is not a habit but a chore that needed to get done. Even then this wass one of my top picks. I thought of Librodo when I saw the entry but wasn't sure. Turned out it was his.
Doing laundry is not necessarily a habit, but if one does laundry EVERY SUNDAY, rather than just whenever fresh clean clothes are needed (as the title of the photo suggests), then it has become a habitual behavior.
habit
7 a : a behavior pattern acquired by frequent repetition or physiologic exposure that shows itself in regularity or increased facility of performance b : an acquired mode of behavior that has become nearly or completely involuntary
If we look past the title and at the details of the picture, we may notice that the young lady is surrounded by spray. 'Shaking off the water before hanging the laundry' certainly strikes me as an odd 'habit'.
I cannot see how anyone would mark this entry down for failing to meet the challenge. Apparently, many did, however marginally.
Great shot, but not a habit. It is a need and a must. Trust me, I do not have a habit of doing laundry. Ewwww...laundry. I have to do the laundry to keep my kids clean and smelling good.
habit
a : a behavior pattern acquired by frequent repetition or physiologic exposure that shows itself in regularity or increased facility of performance
b : an acquired mode of behavior that has become nearly or completely involuntary
From www.dictionary.com
1. A recurrent, often unconscious pattern of behavior that is acquired through frequent repetition.
2. An established disposition of the mind or character. 3. Customary manner or practice: a person of ascetic habits.
4. An addiction, especially to a narcotic drug.
So drawing from 1 & 3, doing the laundary is a recurrent customary practice. Therefore, a habit.

soo..doing laundry is a behavior? Not! It is a need for me. Sorry I still don't think of it as a habit. If this is a habit, than everything is a habit. hmmm...sorry. Just to ease your minds. I didn't vote. :-)
