Oct 31: Blury Boddingtons

Today's shot, like 15 out of the 31 PotDs in October, was taken with the 'found down a well' point 'n' shoot. Can you tell which ones they are? £1000 DSLR or finders keepers p'n's? Take your pic (oops). Anyway, today I could have taken a nice sharp picture of a pumpkin lantern or something similarly topical, but I thought, let's just wave a p'n's camera at an empty beer can. I mean, I think I've proved many times over that I can (sorry) focus a camera, and I do know what a tripod is for. Hmmm comes out nice and blury. Add far too much contrast in PS and, well, I quite like it. Is it art? No, but I've seen worse pictures hanging on a wall...

My local stopped selling Boddingtons after they closed the Manchester brewery, the draught version is now truly awful.
I must say,I've had a few nights when it's looked like this.
