Post your rubbish

[Terrycanon]

The idea for this thread emerged following a little discussion in the Canon R5 thread. I see so much rubbish, litter, trash, junk, etc., as I walk around and I often photograph it. I'd love to see what other people come up with, too. I'm sure there are loads of photo opportunities. It doesn't have to be in a beauty spot. Or it could even be a photo you've taken that you consider to be rubbish! I've had plenty of those. Here are two to start things off...

This could become a really depressing thread.



For relief, a few items that their owners chose to dispose of more responsibly.

I took this shot so I could send it to the council with the location and get them to come and empty it...

 

[DavidWatts]

I object! This thread is pure rubbish!

 

[Terrycanon]

There's tidy rubbish...

 

[Terrycanon]

And then there's very untidy rubbish.

That’s municipal services not doing their job.

I dunno if this counts as rubbish - or just a disgraceful, polluting, antisocial behaviour...

Again, it doesn't help that the council puts notices on the bins to say dog poo accepted... and then they don't empty the bins!

Misplaced discards are so easy to find. Besides this half-used drink, there was another one in the same block, different color but also standing near the edge of the sidewalk. I used the one shown to see what kind of picture I could get out of it. Well, ya got yer subtle palette, ya got yer leading lines, right?

"Cans and bottles, cans and bottles. Why don't they ever put their leftover peanuts on the bench?"

A little corner on a busy street which simply attracts people's rubbish.

 

[SkedAddled]

I'd argue that this counts as rubbish:

It was eventually razed and hauled away.
