Where should I put my soap dish?

[Scarpozzi]

I'm tiling my bathtub/shower today. I've tiled up half of the wall....it's a standard 5 foot tub with a shower. There's a small window in the middle of the 5 foot wall. Should I place the soap dish in the middle about 3 feet up the wall? Or should I place the soap dish on the wall with the showerhead/faucet 3 feet up. I'm considering placing it to the left of the shower since we take showers more frequently than baths....

There will be a corner shelf to the right of the shower head for shampoos, etc...

Thanks for any suggestions.

I'd say to the left

Is it too late to do a recessed shelf into the wall?

I got in an argument with the guy who tiled my shower and for once, I won.

I'm right handed and had it placed high and to the left.

If I let him place it low it would be loaded with soap scum.

I'm having trouble frinding my camrea cable and card reader. I'll have to see what I can do...It'll be tomorrow before I can finish this from the looks of it. I just ran out of tile and Lowes is closed now. It looks like it's going to take me approximately 375 4" tiles to finish the job...

Lucky for me, I should be able to finish putting in the new drain, gaskets, and faucet so I'll at least be able to take a bath in there... My other shower is in the apartment behind my house...I hate having to walk outside in a towel.
