 I was hoping viewers would notice the water flow marks over the can and realize the can was substantially underwater. Figured the blurry can might hurt this some - oh well. I thought it was interesting to look at, although it makes me angry when I see so much litter around our waterways.

PP was fairly straight-forward...nothing special done to get this look. I was surprised at the streaky look myself. :-)

Thanks for looking.

Very artsy to something that otherwise may have been a boring photo. Well executed.

I might have shortened the title to just "man's trespass". I like the image, I'm wondering if it'll score well for you.

What a unique and visually appealing shot. Love the flow and muted colors, and how the can stands out against them.

I think this is very artistic, and I love the tones and the flowing curves. I just wished that the "silver can" were a bit sharper. 8 for originality and prettiness.

Very nice (almost) abstract photo of the garbage humans leave behind.
