Garbage in Garbage out - a photo on Flickriver

            To me this isn't a shot of graffiti, it's a shot of a trash can.  A trashcan like 8 billion others that exists in it's hum drum daily routine while around it life fights for a place to take root, to bask in the sun, to express itself and be heard.  Spend a moment and take it all in and see if it isn't a mirror of life.

I have so many Rainier shots on deck that I'm stoked about, but I don't want to bore Y'all so I thought I'd grab something different.  
I stumbled upon this across the street from the famous Graffiti Park in Austin Texas, which is now closed, and the camera leaped into my hands.   Normally I don't like graffiti no matter how good it is unless the folks who own the property says yes to it, call me a boy scout, my wife does....  :-) but this would not be denied.  (now flickr says that I have to add tags..... irony...
