FLTS-W
A small series of images from the Farmer's Loop Transfer Site West.
Some of you may know the Fairbanks area transfer sites include a covered "reuse/recycle" platform, yet many useful items are still deposited in the dumpsters. But daily people pick through the dumpsters looking for somethings or another, and some of these people place items they find that they cannot use themselves, items that are in good condition, they place them on or outside of the dumpsters as shown here. They do this not for themselves but for others. Typically the people who do this are of simple means, or "poor", yet they have a compassion and an ethic that goes beyond those who treat our resources and goods with disregard and abandon.
Film: Fujicolor 200. Camera: Olympus Stylus Zoom.
Processing: Blue Moon Camera.
