Pretty basic shot. Trash in a puddle, I wanted to do something using a reflection. Crop and resize, adjusted levels, brightness/contrast and hue/saturation (desat yellow to reduce glare)

I am surprised this didnt' score better. It isn't a perfect picture, but it has the elements that DPC seems to like. Perhaps it was the title that did it in for you as too clicheish. Overall though, I think it is a good photo that certainly did not deserve 4 1's!
Simple and bold. I like the strong contrast of the green can on blue. Image size is a bit smaller than what you could have used for this challenge(640 pixels).
