This is what Naples has become through a combination of mismanagement and a complete lack of any sort of recycling system. (Apparently GreenPeace came in and set up a demonstration recycling system in one neighborhood had showed that over 70% of the trash there could be recycled if people would just get it together.)
Here’s hoping that the situation gets resolved and/or the weather doesn’t get too warm…
Thanks to Roger Taylor for the very cool poster shot of the situation on the ground. It was interesting that when I search for “real news articles” on news.google.com I got some useful stories, but very few decent images. A search for Creative Commons licensed images on Flickr, however, turned up a bunch of excellent images (including this one).
Camera gear and maintenance costs money, so if you're one of the many people using my photos in their work (some examples) or just want to support the cause, it would be cool if you could drop a few pennies in the jar on the way by. Thanks!
Man, that’s gonna stink (and probably while I’m there)

And I’m going there in a month for EuroGP.
