Like so many others, I love the title - and the tones which are perfect for an after the season beach shot. Not at all inviting, though - not the sand which looks as it it would do a number on bare feet nor the dirty, gritty strips of plastic.

I'm completely on-board with the new title. It creates a very personal, yet somehow vague, response for me. Timely.

They have great personality. In their optimism there are also hints of nostalgia, loneliness and stoicism.

Did you post-process the color or is that a camera-phone feature?

I processed with Nik Analog Efex Pro 2, which has far more options/settings than I previously realized. There has been something liberating for me about this side challenge that has led me to experiment with alternative ways of processing my entries and in the course of doing that I've discovered several new settings :-)

Beautiful processing, Interestingly enough there seems to still be some life left for these leftovers

Love the post processing and I wonder just how many summers they have been waiting there?


Thanks, and I'd have love to have seen your witty comment. I decided on further reflection that my initial title "Thanksgiving leftover" was just too obscure. But these HAVE been left (over) in this spot for at least two summers!
