Evening all,
Ok here are a few I tried. Please let me know if they work for you.
BTW I used one of the smugmug circular mailing cartons as a tube
I got that idea from a post in "cool shots" a few months ago. On the SPs I also used a plastic see through shoe box as a filter and the timer (what a pain that was!).
Thanks for looking in advance.
1.Despair
2. Need Xanex Now!
3. Profile (could use a better title)
4.?title (I like the juxtaposition of the ugly recycled cans and the blooming tree and the person sifting through the recycled garbage for cans) felt a little like a sniper taking these shots.

Title 4 One Shot One Kill to go with your feeling:D

#2 made me smile.
I think #4 works best. How about Full Metal Jacket for a title?
So #4 is looking like the one so far. I was kind of partial to "Despair", but no takers hu?
I like "Full Metal Jacket" although it makes me wish it somehow had crosshairs--I should have done that ahead of time, but didn't think I would end up with this shot.
I was also thinking "Looking Down the Barrel".
I like the "One shot, one kill" too but it's so violent! I like it though, it's different.
No "Despair"? lol--I"m so pushy.
Thank you for the input guys.

So funny, when Sean announced this challenge I thought of you immediately - I've taken a liking to your style!
These are all really great - love the grain and the black & white.
I vote for #1, followed by #2. There is something about the simplicity of the composition that really appeals to me - not that I have anything against recycling bins!

For the challenge, I favor #4. Tells a story without a title + Probably impossible to reshoot + Just about perfect as is = Outstanding.

Awww thanks Christopher:)
So I have to decide to either go with the weird one I like or go with the majority--the brain says go with the majority (specially since it's about voting once/if you get past the judges) my gut says pick the weird one "Despair"
I do like #4, specially since it's a street shot and I love that genre too.
I appreciate the input Christopher:D and the very nice words.

Hi Virginia and thank you.
"tells a story without a title" hmmm where I have I heard that before:D .
another one for #4 ok then. I do still need a title though, I've had some good inputs--all of them having to do with me taking the guy out! Some violent dgrinners here

A bit warped, especially since it looks like there is no metal in the scene at all.
I vote for #4 as well Liz. It's a great capture. #2 looks like it could be called True Blood.
... I'm still peeling potatoes.
