How about a single white flower on a out of focus grass back ground in a black frame?

Why not use that shot of the flower, but changed to black and white with the contrast boosted.

Err...I don't do any reading in the bathroom.

Chris, why not buy the flash and not do up the room, but if you do, oh please dont put a self portrait on the back of the door. Most disconcerting.

The lily photo is too graphic for a loo. Reminds me (in these surroundings) of a urinal. Sorry.

And why deny the boys their (reading) pleasure? Just make sure you've got some good looking arty magazines. Or, better still, have a cover/folder made, with your preferred photograph, so that any reading matter will fit in with your colour scheme?

While on this subject, I know someone who, in the past (don't know if he still does it, I believe he has now taken up golf) used to take the paper, a cup of coffee and a cigar when he 'retired.' Just to have some peace and quiet.

Can we all put up photos Chris for your approval and then you could select one for the back of the door or wall or ceiling or floor or even the bog seat. Mine would most likely go down. lol.

A nice soft landscape with loads of perspective to give the impression of being outside, maybe even a busy townscape with loads of interesting buildings and rooftops to keep your mind interested while you have to be in there.

You do know that expecting to get the answer here will take a long time
