I spotted this forgotten mug on an alley walk last week. Therefore it doesn't really meet the requirements for this week's competition, but it still seems like a good picture for "abandoned" so I'm tagging it anyway. I guess the owner left it in a moment of distraction. In fact, he probably wasn't fully awake and needed a good cup of coffee...
I sure looks abandoned. That technique of drawing our eyes to the blue cup, with it's blahhh surroundings, really makes it appear to be yelling, "Hey, I'm out here. Where did you go?" Ditto on Ginette's comment. How do you get the cup to stay blue & everything else in B&W?
