The serendipity is that the broken machine dispensed you a beverage? That's cool!

would have been a lot better had there been no can in the bottom tray

I would have put the focus on the gift, but anyway very refreshing picture, can You imaging this spot in a road in the desert?

Yep quite like this, the low-fi nature of the image somehow enhances the desperation for liquid. I would though have turned the can in the tray around so it was more easily identifiable.

If it's out of order, why is there a can waiting to be pulled from the dispenser??

Interesting picture. I guess the serendipity lies in having found the pop machine on a hot day. It must be un-serendipity that it's out of order! Nice clear shot taken from a good angle.

I like this take on the challenge idea - I wish the contrast and saturation were a little bit stronger and I have a little trouble seeing the can that came out of this supposedly broken machine (maybe turn the label).

Nice, but I wish the photo conveyed "mid-day heat."
