My wife does not understand my fascination with garbage. To be honest, neither do I. If someone can help me out here with a response to her query, I’d be forever grateful. Well, maybe not forever, but a quip or off the wall retort would be most welcome. Why am I sitting here on this filthy concrete street, setting my camera on it’s tripod, to document a back alley in Las Vegas? Why am I not out front where the neon facade promises action, adventure, excitement, rather than sitting here feeling the damp and cold seep through my jeans?

Actually I think the back allies would be more interesting. Great shot.

Its not the garbage you are attracted to its the art on the containers and building 🙂 Great work Emilio.

I do love that woman’s face but my wife (let’s call her Lynn) doesn’t seem to see it. She just sees trash and garbage! Thanks, Joe!

Yo creo, que en fotografía, la zona de sombra es tan importante como la de luz.

Thanks for your comment. My Spanish sucks but I was able to decipher a rough translation, and then I went to an online translator and I was very close. I agree with you it’s all about light and shadow. Glad you appreciate it.
