This frame has not been cropped. The following post processing has been added: auto-tone, bleach bypass, medium grain, light fill and black clipping. The dark spots are not dirt on the lens, they are flies.

This is not a posed or staged picture. It was spur of the moment as the car I was in left the rubbish dump. I caught just two frames hanging out the window and this is the best of them.
