Without the foreground shadows and the can a bit more to the right, this would've been a lot higher on my list.

This photo seems a little too simple... not sure if I like the low and off centered subject either. - bamaster (6)

Yes it is. It is a trash can, and nothing more. I think this lacks something to make it exciting to me. The wall seems too bright in the sun, and the shadow is distracting. The top of the can is washed out. The anlge and framing/cropping are good, and the focus on the can is also nice. I like the use of neg. space, but kind of wish it were more interesting neg. space. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~

Overall I like this simplistic idea a lot. Had it been me, I may have tried moving the can further to the left to allow the full shadow in the shot, and eliminate the small diagonal shadow from the left. Again, still a very good idea.

Your title says it all - but composition and lighting are poor

Yup... it's a trashcan... The photo doesn't say much else :) - setzler

Move it to the left and get it's whole shadow

I really like the brick wall and the sunlight. I think this shot begs to have the can more off center though. Look at the shot in this challenge R2D2 and how the can off by itself came out so nice. Good job. DPz
