Challenge: Garbage III (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-7D
Lens: Canon EF 24-105mm f/4.0L IS
Date: Jan 9, 2012
Date Uploaded: Jan 9, 2012

 so, this was a frustrating shoot, not only can you tell from the models smirk she was not wanting to cooperate(she did not want to wear a garbage bag dress). The lighting was not wanting to cooperate(sometimes I hate basic editing) trying to get an all white background and light the model is ridiculously hard with my lighting setup. And really I didn't achieve either the way I wanted. The dress is blown and the background has spots of dark here and there. Oh well, I do like the overall concept and I am glad you all seemed to like it as well.

The dress is made of a garbage sack with toilet paper flowers, and the flower garden is pop cans with green soda bottles cut up into leaves and grass.

I think this is a great photo... definitely an "appealing" photo of an otherwise unappealing subject (assuming the cans are the subject, not the beautiful little girl!). Well done

Cute girl, and meets the challenge. It is a little hard to see the dress though as it seems washed out with the BG.

Brilliant use of title to tell us all that we don't see at first glance.

I love this... especially the adorable girl's bare toes (but am not voting).
