I love the way you used this chance to take a kind of subversive landscape photo :). It's beautiful for its flaws. Garbage and pollution are nasty, but this photo is stunning. 10 - lisae

It's a beautiful picture but your subject is not in focus.

Pretty scenery, and you included some garbage too. Subtle, but obvious. you have done a good job of making a photo of garbage look nicely presentable. focus and clarity are good. I like the angle you have chosen here, with the garbage in the bottom right, and looking down the river. Looks like there's some other garbage down farther, but I think that with it not being "jump out at you" obvious, that the garbage in the bottom right works just fine. Nice shot. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~

Good shot.. the water seems to clean and serene until you take a closer look....

For some reason, I don't like the reflection in the water.. too much contrast and the beauty of the river is a little lost for me. - bamaster (7)

were u thinking (how do I make garbage beautiful) to yourself? I know the river is beautiful but its more like the photographers copyright mark rather than the subject of the pic. 4 Mags

Like this. The 'garbage' scenario is quite subtle and the image is all the better for it. seasick - 8.
