I don't get an idea of what this is. Too much detail lost in the shadows. Had I not read the title, I would have thought this to be a farm with some crops burning in the background. Too ambiguous and doesn't hit home. Try photographing at a different time of day to show contents of landfill.

I appreciate your comments, thanks. I was trying to capture the essence of a landfill site - they arent especially photogenic, which is why I chose to sillouette - Photography should stimulate the observer into thinking, it shouldnt necessarily be obvious, yes this could be a farm during the backburn season, it could be a number of things -

- Maybe its photojournalism in a raw form - a subject, loosely tied to a photograph, reinforced with words - A photograph tells a thousand words etc etc, but one with a title can provoke imagination and thought - ?
