A MILD case of Water Litter

Uploaded: June 23, 2012

This was at a very posh waterfront condo complex. The stench that almost keeled us over may have been from a recent massive fish kill in the harbor.

A mild case of Trash. We subsequently encountered much WORSE examples! #1470793

Wow, I can't get over the amount of water litter, that's disgusting. People are so revolting at times. Great capture of the Trash Cat, never heard or seen one like that myself. #10196983

Nice one for the MT, Michelle! Better than picking it up by hand or worse yet just letting it stay there and sink to the bottom. #10196996

Its sad to see this regardless of who's doing it. I will never understand people doing this. If any good came out of it, you got a fantastic picture of the boat the goes around and picks it up. A marvelous MT and view of this ship. While I admire your photography, I wish this boat didn't have to be my friend. #10197015

Cool capture, Michelle!
Litter is such a problem, but some people seem oblivious to it. #10197430

Fantastic capture-Yes its a shame that many people are "pigs"-The are probably the same people or simolar to those who throw trash out their car windows #10198180

Only humans pollute their home (The planet Earth) What a shame. #10204188

And a lot of times it's the "posh" ones who make the mess, Tony & I encountered this in a restaurant recently!! Glad we don't have smellavision on our computers!! Even though sad to see, it makes for a great image all the same =^..^= #10205535

What a great piece of technology but at the same time it confuses me as why we would even need it. Great story and photo Michelle. #10208324
