I very much dislike the rainbow template.

I never seem to get used to what it is telling me.

That's probably the closest I could guess. Looks like the exterior view of a exterior wall above a deck/porch, with the steps going down on the right. Could possibly be damaged siding from a bbq?

Sorry for the delay!

Shower stall is the correct answer. You can actually see the tub an stall outline to some degree. It was a hot day outside and I had the cold water on in the shower which made it visible.

Once again infrared allowed me to have x-ray vision an see through the wall. < a joke

I believe it's all about what palette we learn on. I'd imagine the majority of us have 1-2 colors we are comfortable with an stick with for the most part. I sorta screwed myself in the beginning by learning everything with the rainbow palettes an rarely using anything else. Now I've become sorta reliant on rainbow. Sometimes I'll use Ironbow or Blue-Red but I'll always double check everything with rainbow to confirm.

Why limit yourself to one color when you can have them all? I'm still speaking of Infrared, not women..
