Here's another shot that I took during one of my recent trips back to the UK: an abandoned shopping trolley, part-buried on the beach just north of Blackpool's North Pier. I also have another shot of the same trolley that I'll post either tomorrow or the day after.
In related news, as the processing for this shot was reasonably complex I thought it would make a good addition to our library of Mini-PSDs (PSD files that subscribers to our Photoshop tutorials can download each week). Oh, and if you're interested in subscribing, we're currently offering a 25% discount until the end of the year. Further details here:

...or the shopping trolley is rising from the subterranean trolley world... okay...maybe not. Nice processing results. Love the rich detail.

Carlos: I suspect not ;)

Brilliant colors !
...and I've often wondered about how does a shopping (cart to us in the US) trolly make its way to the beach? and not just the tarmac, but all the way to the sea shore???

Looks like this cart has seen better days :-)

Great colors on the shopping cart, and the detail in the sand is amazing.

What a great image, very powerful. And the colors are awesome. Cheers.

Thanks everyone :)

I like both of the shots, of course, but must say, this one is my favorite of the two simply because the color and colors of the cart is/are such a nice surprise.
You do great work. Very nice.
Happy new year.
