During our class field trip to the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD), we were assigned the task of taking a picture that could be used as the cover photo for the Toronto Star. To do this we had to become "photojournalists". I was finally able to find this photo after walking around for what seemed liked forever trying to find the perfect shot.

This picture is of a trash container and a recycling bin in Grange Park. While Cora and I walked along the park's main path, I noticed that people who walked into the park weren't there to admire the scenery or go to the playground; they were just there to throw away their garbage. These containers were being filled with fast food waste and paper. Although only one of the containers (the blue one) was a recycling bin, no one seemed to care when they stuffed their leftover McDonald's french fries into it, and their paper waste into the garbage bin. I felt that this would make a good newspaper cover photo for an article concerning the environment and the affect Toronto habitants are having on it through their wastefulness.
