OK, I know you can't actually move the trash can, but I wish it could have moved down the sidewalk about 6 feet toward you. Then you could have had this nice contrast between a trash can just sitting there and all this garbage on the street. I would suggest that you moved forward the 6 feet, but then it looks like there would be all sorts of toher stuff in the shot to serve as distractions. Anyway, nice lines -- the trash can is just a wish. :-)
nice shot. interesting interpretation of "city life". a bit overexposured because some of the paper is totally white. photo 8, creativity 8, city life 8 = 8
Sad but true. I like the diagonal leading my attention along the trash in the gutter. If my eyes are not fooling me, the overall photograph looks soft focus, I feel this picture screems sharp detail, look at this filth. I wuold have used post process sharpening, just my opinion.
Well composed shot of a nasty subject. This is so very well done, but the subject matter is soooo difficult to "grade you up" to the number you really deserve. (contraditory, I know) (part of my grade is "would I hang this on my wall at home" criteria, and I wouldn't ever do that with this shot, but would I hope to see something like this in a gallery or such, certainly, just not in my house) Started out with a grade of 6 (all subject matter) Photo 8 City 7 total 7 (upped you one grade point, should have done more, but the subject keeps me down.)
Yuck! Love the diagonal line of the curb. I wish the trash can wasn't in the picture (especially since it makes me more frustrated that people don't just pick this mess up and throw it away). It could be a little brighter too.
Very nice composition. This photo says soooo much. I too thought of taking a photo of the trash all over, displaying the way people have absolutely no respect. The trash can really makes the message stand out. Great job, Bravo.
Yes, that's right, trash happens too-I'm interested in photos that show us what we don't usually look at. Good choice of subject, good framing. I'm grimly resigned. Maybe a bit angry, too.
