How the photos are taken…

These photos are taken as I travel, worldwide, mostly on public transport. Of course I can’t ask the bus to stop so I have missed some horrendous shots and many snaps taken while speeding along have not come out

I do not deal in rubbish and do not visit dumps as part of my job. And, (despite what you might think), it isn’t my hobby. The photographs I take are the trash I come across in daily life and are never staged for effect. What is shown is what I have seen.

I do not choose to visit a specific locations deliberately to take rubbish photos but snap what I see on the way. As a result, my  photographs often don’t show the worst examples.

Even so, they are pretty grim!
