Hi all,

So it's Sunday morning and we are on our way back from some early morning shopping. We are driving down the road towards our place and see this on the side of the road so of course I couldn't resist getting the 40D out :D ...

The photo itself, technically, isn't anything special and there's no awe inspiring post processing.

It was just a case of being at the right place at the right time and being able to capture something that's, well .... strange.

[I'd say some local Saturday night revellers had some fun; if anyone can shed some light on how they think they actually did it - please do so!]

they aren't heavy so I'm gonna guess they took 3 of them and lifted them all at once to put it on top of the fourth one.

Thanks guy's.

Makes sense. The lids aren't that strong or flat so I reckon they've done a great job at getting them balanced.

cheers,

Never judge a person till you walk a mile in their shoes - by then it won't matter. You are a mile away and they have no shoes.

Interesting how they have the household garbage, the green waste and the recyclables all out for collection...probably in the one truck before dawn so no one sees!!!!!
