The first day of each month is a theme day for members of City Daily Photo. For September, that theme is Bottle. Check out how others are interpreting the theme right here.
Bottle Works is a charitable venture, picking up empties from restaurants and other businesses, all in support of Operation Come Home, an organization that works with street youths. This truck was parked near the organization's offices downtown.
For the most part, however, this theme day stymied me, so I took the easy way out. The LCBO is the primary liquor retail outlet in Ontario, a government crown corporation selling alcohol in retail stores- some Canadian, others from abroad. I decided to take photographs of window displays at a downtown location. I'll defer to others as to what these might taste like, as I don't drink at all.
Mind you, this one is a good label design.
The shopkeepers did not confiscate your camera?
ReplyDeleteNo, but being outside helps.
Delete...I'l stick with tap water, thanks.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
DeleteCool idea with the truck. Nice design, too.
ReplyDeleteI thought so.
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteIt is great the truck goes around picking up the empties. Take care, enjoy your day and happy weekend.
Thank you.
DeleteGee, William, I’m not sure we can trust people who don’t drink wine. Good wine, in combination with good food, is a hallmark of civilization!
ReplyDeleteAlas, I do not.
DeleteI have to wonder about the economics about owning a truck to pick up bottles for charity.
ReplyDeleteThey must collect enough that the truck is warranted.
DeleteI haven't seen that many bottles since a while.
ReplyDeleteOne glass of wine a day keeps the doctor away.
I am sitting outside an LCBO waiting on a bus as I write this.
DeleteReturning empties can bring in a lot of money. That is a good idea for the charities.
ReplyDeleteIt is.
DeleteWonderful initiative of trucking empty bottles for charity.
ReplyDeleteVery much so.
DeleteThat Bottle Works is a great idea.
