lighting is a little too glary.

Flash put some unpleasant shadows behind the subject. Neat concept though. - bamaster (6)

This looks like mine every week. Good portrayal of American Society.

Looks like all the junk mail I get. The photo is well set up, well taken and definately depicting garbage. My only complaint is small. You have a very strong horizontal line, and it's tilting a bit to the left. I'm talking about the line that seperates the wall and the table/floor. Your lighting and focus and clarity are all very nice. Great shot. Good luck in the challenge. ~hbunch7187~

Junk mail is a great example of garbage... the portrayal of it in this image doesn't have a high level of WOW factor. It's not very easy to use the flash and come out with a nicely lit photo... - setzler

Good idea, but it feels too forced or set up. Which of course it was, but maybe if the junk mail wasn't so neat in the basket it would look more natural. I feel it is too centered.

A bit dark at the bottom... this is a low interest shot as well. Try different variations on the theme. (4) MarkRob

Very neat trash can. I like the focus and color but think this shot could have really been improved with different lighting. It appears that you used an on camera flash which makes it flat with a heavy shadow on the left. Try the same shot with a couple of table lamps throwing the light from the sides more. You may have to play with it a bit but I think it would make a more interesting shot. DPz
