Whose window did you break to take this photo? Something of an air of mystery here.

@Twelvebit: Lol, I did not, I was just walking and saw this broken glass and assumed something bad was done, that's all. In California you see a lot of it

Maybe things have improved --it has been a long time-- but when I went to Jr. high school in Southern California, it wasn't even safe to use the restroom. The school restrooms were a good place to get robbed, beaten up, or worse. We had students high on drugs, locker searches with drug sniffing dogs, regular fights, and trash can fires. We moved and I started high school in a small Texas town. We had an open campus with no police. No drug problems. No violence. No vandalism. Safe restrooms. And back in those days, kids even came to school with shotguns and rifles hanging in the gun racks in their pickups; and sometimes we stood in the parking lot openly admiring someone's new shotgun or hunting rifle. I doubt there is anyplace like that left in this country today.

@Twelvebit: That' scary. Still today America is not safe place.

Great perspective. Did you have to lay on the ground for this shot?

Creative approach. Converting litter and debris into art. One simple snap of the shutter. Nice work Amir.

cool looking shot. There is some sadness to this image. Maybe an accident?

@Rags: You are right, it has that feeling as well
Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom
Great angle, that broken glass appears and reflects like crystal. Interesting words to go with the image, it tells a short anchoring story for the image.
