Comments for this Competition

“One man’s garbage is another man’s treasure” is an old saying that will guide this theme. The treasure will be the image you find of something abandoned, unloved, left out in the elements, or cast aside. The opportunities are wide open to find the story in the subjects you find and to practice some techniques like ICM, black and white, unusual angles, natural light, and high key/low key.
