This gives a real feel of what city life is like. Good photo. |

I wish the garbage can was completely vertical. But I still like this shot. Good capture of the "laziness" of the city. |

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 idea. I'm not sure I can connect the title to the image, though. |

Original way to show city life and very well framed/cropped. |

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. |

a better view of the trash can would make this contradiction even better |

I ca't read the newspaper but I'm guessing this is in the USA? |

Trash does tell a story about city life! (and us..) |

I love this idea. However, I would have put even more emphasis on the trash can to convey the irony.

sad statement. seems tilted to the right. i hope this is not an exemplar of your city's life. |

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.) |

wow... what city is this? I might have tried the shot a bit lower to the ground for a more dramatic look |

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. |

Yeah, ;that's the city life I know. |

Chop off the top two inches and I think it would be better. but that's just me. |

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. |

Bingo! Good shot. Well done all around. Kee |

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. |

The longer I looked, the more I liked it. Garbage stretching on forever. |

I don't think this is only seen in the city, but good concept and great picture (9) |

Sadly, city life can be just like this. There is the pretty area and then the ugly side of it, too. |
