This picture was taken at Patan Durbar Square near “Rani Pokhu” on a sunny afternoon on 5 Septmeber 2010.
who do I call to have collect empty cans and plastic bottles that have been recycled?
The word ‘recycle’ in red is catchy here though this picture is taken from common perspective. Common perspective like this sometime limit photographer to bring visual impact in their pictures overshadowing the message it contains. Sandeep could have composed this shot without cropping legs of youths who are busy creating art out of discarded plastic bottles. May be low perspective covering full length of trash bucket in wooden shelf could have been better choice. Going low could also emphasize the globe created plastic bottle bigger.
P.S: Let’s practice 3 R for clean and better city. REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE. And before you discard plastic bottle, remove its lid first, cramped it and replace its lid.
this is how we can make a new nepal .. good job …
good form of art, and I think good subject to capture.
