The recycling bins are organized, the garbage bins are a mess!

 

(This shot is a little unfair -- there's a nicely organized stack of more garbage bins to the left, but it makes for a better story this way. :-)

Why people dump a nice jacket to the garbage place?

Based on a rescue vehicle model built in the brick just this evening. I adapted the design into this using LDD, exported into Bricksmith, edited the model, and snapped this shot with LDView.

 

I have a few models I need to photograph, but haven't had much time to clean up the LEGO room. My apologies for being so inactive lately.

Garbage cleaner or a waste collector is a person employed by a public or private enterprise to collect and remove refuse.

But this person does the work for free. He or she may contact disease or enen die due to that.

The can is full of so much trash!!

Garbage in local dumpsters

Dan & Grant had a system. They switched places every 3 blocks so each person got away from the stench and into the warm cab.

Garbage at The Pageant | April 09, 2013

BOSTON, MA - OCTOBER 21: Garbage, one of the '90s biggest alt.rock bands of their era, hit the US on their 20 Years Queer tour, led by the pink-haired singer Shirley Manson and drummer/producer Butch Vig. Support by Torres. Shot at The Orpheum Theatre on Wednesday, October 21, 2015. All Rights Reserved © Tim Bugbee

Me reuní dos veces con Garbage los días, el 14 de Diciembre y 15 de Diciembre de 2016 la primera sólo para una foto y la segunda ocasión fue muy extenso y pude preguntarles muchas cosas, entre ellas dar mis respetos a Steve Marker como una de las mentes no reconocidas de Garbage.

 

Shirley pareció no recordar mis pinturas durante todo ese tiempo, pero para mi sorpresa antes de terminar preguntó como me llamo y me retuvo con ellos tomándome de ambas manos, y mirándome de frente dijo: "Gracias por tu trabajo estamos muy agradecidos de lo que haces"... enumeró algunas pinturas que recordaba de mi en especial mencionó la de ella en vestido rojo, la cual ella misma escogió como ganadora para adjudicarme tickets gratis... jamás me había sentido tan compensado y reconocido, para mi eso vale mucho más que el dinero, mi admiración por la banda es genuina y estoy dispuesto a pintar las ideas que otros fans me encarguen, ya que pienso que pintar se parece mucho a cocinar ... el trabajo tiene sentido cuando ves que otros lo disfrutan.

Today's Daily Shoot assignment: make a photograph of something noisy.

Sicily. Castelbuono.

Late spring break.

 

Castelbuono is a Zero Waste town of 10.000hab in Sicily, Italy, which has managed to develop an innovative system to marry sustainability, social work and economics. The mayor, Mario Cicero, decided to link the recovery of a traditional donkey-breed from Sicily –called Ragusa- with the challenges of the waste collection in narrow streets and the social work to reintegrate people into society… and all of this without scaring off the big number of tourists that visit the fantastic medieval castle or buy local products of this Sicilian town.

 

This is how Mr Cicero decided to use the donkeys to do the door-to-door separate collection. On one hand it makes donkeys useful so that recovering this breed stops being a cost to become an asset, on the other hand it becomes a way to reintroduce socially excluded people -with mental or addiction problems- thanks to using contact with animals as a therapy –onotherapy– and finally it turns waste collection into a tourist attraction and an education tool. A win-win situation!

Why Garbage? Well it's not too obvious. But again I've uploaded a shot from Lake Baikal. On one hand the lake got the reputation that it is polluted.

On the other we saw that the local people actually don't care about the environment. This little shed is one example. It has no other apparent reason apart from storing the garbage. Although it's rather big there are even bottles lying in front of it.

Furthermore there are also some thing scattered all over the place. Too bad.

 

What's the solution? This beach is also famous for some campers. Those are quite often collecting the dirt. In this matter i'd like to point out that i am no tree hugger. But it was rather dangerous to step on a sherd.

 

I just want to emphasize that the beach is not dirty whatsoever, but with a little more care, it'd be perfect!

 

8,000+ views yesterday? Not possible. WTF is going on with Flickr these days?

Tossed the garbage bag in the hopper and here is the June Cosmo screaming to be freed... or about to get the blade!!

Rain on a black plastic garbage bag...

The city wasn't clearing the alley of snow, so the garbage trucks stopped coming to my building. Pretty nasty.
