Going to make my grocery, I saw this branch of celery that was left in the grocery shopping car. Immediately I took this image and tried to represent my feeling.

*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

A basic shot that meets the challenge fully.

The main subject, the trolley, obviously meets the challenge brief in full. I like that you have chosen to represent the challenge in a way associated with the trolleys use to enable the shopper to get the groceries from the store to their vehicle and that this stick of celery didn't quite make it – it ended up rejected.

In view of my interpretation of your image you could argue that it should be taken as it is in the midst of the car park where it was left but to me your image has a lot of background distractions. The main one being the lorry, the person and not least the yellow line, of those I think only the person is a desirable element the others are not contributing to the end result. I've just realised what I thought was a lorry is in fact the trolley's owners name, ok, but I still think a different viewpoint closer in on the celery and its cage like surroundings through the corner in a more abstract fashion would have made it a stronger image with much less background distraction.

Sorry you didn't get any comments during the challenge, I hope mine makes up for it, Sid
