Return Your Empty Bottle

In my photography I don’t shy away from trashy subjects, particular when that trash is the detritus of civilization, as we live it.

Sometimes our trash tells an interesting story about us, although we may not want this story told…

Such was the case for this image, which I captured on a frosty morning on the edge of a fallow field.  This 5 gallon (18.9 liter) water bottle missed out on its opportunity for a refill, as it had been discarded before its next reincarnation as a water container.

Return for Refill

This image was captured with an iPhone 4S using the standard Camera app.

Inspired by the Daily Post – Empty.
