The Beauty of Rubbish

[Paul Lange]

There is certainly loads of it around and after a while you begin to appreciate how it looks.

Excellent! The second looks like a monster - very funny. The comp in the first couldn't be improved. And the reflection in the glass is perfect. Really like these, Paul.

Cheers Rob, very kind of you. It was worth walking around for 4 hours in the heat after all, the things we do for love.

All wonderful, but especially the first two. Hard to believe you could find such photogenic rubbish with a perfect trail of flowers to finish it all off

Well done Paul there is something good about the detritus that belies our streets, but puzzled by the last the vehicle licence plate is not UK so???

 

[Pete Askew]

And another super series kicks off. I like these a lot Paul, especially the second. Bleak hotels and city rubbish. What a life!

 

[Dan Cattermole]

Exceptional!!!

 

[Brian Moore]

Beauties, Paul. Number 1 is especially elegant.

Thank you, who would have thought that we could get so excited about rubbish! Kev, these were taking in Tripoli.

Is liking pics of rubbish odd? Not in this case...well done Paul. Also...when I moved away from the Boston area people used to make fun of me calling it rubbish. The term is used less and less these days as people move around so much...and mostly call it trash. Now that I'm back home...it's rubbish again.

I am still discovering terms that mean different things in the US to the UK. During my last trip to Houston I found out that a fanny is a term for a bum (bottom, rear, posterior, not a tramp BTW). For those that don't know in the UK the fanny is the orifice around the opposite side on the front. Good to know, that one could have caused a hell of a bedroom faux par.
