Oh, man that is sad. But a good picture for the challenge.

Gar(b)age

Interesting shot. The texture of the wall gives the photo interest as well as the depth of the garage. At first I thought I was looking down into a dumpster from high up! Kinda tricky! It works well.

Junk mail, file 13!

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.

Staring Death in the Face

Very nice shot. Amazing how the top of the smoke almost looks like a skull or maybe an alien head!

Son's Trash or Treasure... You be the judge

Hmmmm, I would most definitely have to go with trash. This has the makings of a really good photo, but door is a bit distracting and the picture could be sharper, IMO.

What's the tip? I can't figure it out. But nice color.

I saved this photo for last, as I couldn't quite make up my mind what I thought about it. Not that I didn't like it. It is mesmerizing, in fact. That face! Those eyes! That red dress and earrings! But I kept feeling like she was the object of the photo instead of the garbage. She is more in focus than the trash. But yet, the trash is there. And as well executed as some of these garbage photos are, none has evoked emotions like this one. The more I look at it, and those eyes look at me, I think this is not only an excellent photo for the challenge, but one of the few that I would ever even want to look at again. This is my only 10 this week.

Bad Cats

Sorry, but the only thing this picture does for me is scare me! Big undefinable animal (if not for your title) getting into some really wicked looking garbage....Yeow! So I guess if the gross garbage got to me, then you succeeded there, but I think if you had taken the picture from a different angle, perhaps showing more of the cat's face it would look less like a snapshot!
