Recycle?

Leckhampton Hill, Cheltenham view map

I wasn't entirely sure what was going on here, but the smell was...well, ummm...certainly robust! Checking out Google back home reveals all: http://www.n-virocycle.co.uk/ That explains it!!

Great highlighting of the lorry with its splash of colour against the more subdued background.This would make a super advertising photo for the company, Doug.

You know what they say: the grass is always greener over the septic tank ;) Nice colours, though.

This one has cause quite a stir - adding the element of smell to photography.

Barbara Heide		24-Feb-2009 23:42
nice find!

Well i suppose it beats chucking it all in the river.

Maaike Huizer		24-Feb-2009 08:38
What a great find. Glad i cannot smell it.

Richard Chapman		24-Feb-2009 07:38
Very green

Cindi Smith		24-Feb-2009 04:36
Emptying septic tanks, maybe?

A very large truck for collecting what I think it might be collecting!

Very nice composition and lots of details in this one. Very sharp and clear too. What a contrast between the old farm buildings and the modern shiny truck. "V"

Sheila		24-Feb-2009 02:36
The truck is a fantastic green against those old farm buildings. Don't they do muck spreading any more!

Inga Morozoff		24-Feb-2009 02:20
I can smell it from here! (Fantastic photo by the way!)

carol j. phipps		24-Feb-2009 02:11

J. Scott Coile		23-Feb-2009 22:05
WOW. Excellent contrast. Going GREEN ;-)

Mairéad		23-Feb-2009 21:53
A good image but I HATE the smell of slurry being spread on the countryside.

Máire Uí Mhaicín		23-Feb-2009 21:25
The reality of green recycling!

Johnny JAG		23-Feb-2009 21:05
It makes you queazy, being green

mart senior		23-Feb-2009 18:47

Laryl		23-Feb-2009 18:26
ok but eww glad I can't smell it!

Phillip Normanton		23-Feb-2009 16:43
Hmmmmmm - well I looked at the website.... it's all a bit, errm, what's the word.... 'vague', isn't it!? They collect 'organic waste' and then plonk it into fields 'for free'. I hope we don't see them on the news in a few years time.... ;-)
