A close-up, color photograph, looking up a wooden utility pole covered in rust-covered staples, harsh sunlight on the pole creating shadows making for a busy, abstract image.

A black and white photograph of a beat-up and abused city utility box, sitting on a sidewalk in the shadow of a house, barely held together with a wire, wrapped around the box and keeping its bent and mangled louvered doors from falling open, avoiding being more than just en eyesore. In the sun-drenched background are two young people walking on the sidewalk in front of a small house on the left, a small gas station on the right with a car using the driveway to leave.

Rough life.

A pair of photographs of the same Calla Lily from two slightly different angles. The lighting changed with the perspective, so the photos don't appear to be the same flower. The photos have a smoothness attained using Photoshop's Dust and Scratches filter in post-processing.
