Cans

Cans, originally uploaded by back to basic.

Sorry all for not posting yesterday... I had to hunker down and do some serious homework, that equals no time to blog. Sad, I know.

So many of the pictures I take are in passing, and quite often I don't realize what I have taken until I put it on the computer. Such is the case for this photo. What I love about this image is the fact that someone made the effort to get the Gatorade bottle to the recycling cans, but failed to put it in one of them. This begs the question: What happened to that person? Were they in the act of opening the can when suddenly an out-of-control Vespa sideswiped them, knocking them down to the pavement and earning them a trip to the hospital? Or did they all of a sudden realize that by recycling one measly bottle wasn't going to save the world and decided to mock the system by tossing the bottle on top of the can? These questions unfortunately will have to go unanswered, but sometimes fiction is better than reality. I'm invested in the Vespa Theory.
