 Abandoned chair outside the Salvation Army.
Took many different angles, trying to make it interesting.. not sure I succeeded. The chair is a hideous yellow-green, which blended too much with the foliage, I thought, so I made it black & white.

Meets challenge and is technically good. Just dosen't appeal to me. Looks more like garbage than something just obsoloete. I always judge on whether it's something I might hang on my wall.

provoking shot, but not enjoyable to look at.

I like the composition, with the sweeping curve of the kerb emphasising the battered chair, but the cardboard ovelapping the kerb is distracting, as is most of the other bright rubbish - removing it from the shot would have simplified it and made it stronger. (although, then it wouldn't have been 'natural', but hey!) you would then have had 3 simple textures - the fence, the gravel and the tarmac with strong deliniations between them.
