 This is my first entry as a member. The only "color" in the original was in the label and on the table edge; since I thought it distracted from the story here, I decided to go with monochrome. Sepia seemed to suit the subject better than black and white.

Interesting submission. Something you don't think of as garbage.

Good composition, but I wish you would have rotated the container so the label was facing away from you, it really distracts from the image.

I would personally also increase contrast a bit and lighten it up... though I do understand you were going for the older, faded look.
