Was enjoying a coffee by the beach this morning and this industrious juvenile gull was working over the garbage can beside me. Just had to shoot him, and didn't even have to get out of the car. Can't pick a favourite so here are a few shots.

In-laws visiting this weekend; turned on the garbage disposal to find it was jammed, just made a humming sound; this little guy was one of the things I found inside...
Beautiful but it's trash... the bicycle was found on a heap of garbage, and the beautiful building is a garbage holding/sorting facility that my office designed.
Belle poubelle!
We don't give much notice to the ubiquitous garbage truck, yet without it, life would get pretty interesting within a few days.
In Elgin Park, there was only one such truck, owned by "Pip" Paulson, and he made the rounds tirelessly, 5 days a week.
All of the town's castoffs were taken down by the river, at a place called Bunkie's Landing. This used to be a notorious area for rum running and other nefarious activities, back in the 1920's and '30s, but times had changed and the town's dump was now there.
Back to "Pip" Paulson; he was a valued citizen who performed a very necessary task that kept the town running smoothly. He bought himself a new Buick in 1948, seen here, which he kept in tip top shape and remained his only car until he passed away in 1965.
A hail and hearty Hurrah! for the "sanitary engineers" throughout the world. This photo is dedicated to you.
As for the model...the business end of the garbage truck, in the photo, was handmade, based on an early '50s design. It is constructed of styrene plastic and found objects.
On a different note...
Father's Day is coming up soon and the publisher

So somehow we arrived at Great Wolf Lodge, home to a pretty rad indoor waterpark.
They have fun decorations, like this squirrel garbage can.
The famous 'garbage trains' on the CJ meter-gauge lines are luckily still running nowaday, though not anymore with ex-RhB traction. Near La Ferrière, December 2013
Took photos of garbage. Stuck my head in the garbage can looking forward colors and shapes. Manipulated the image using double exposure and a new editing app.
