When you haven't gone out shooting in a bit it is good to go through old shots that you never even processed. This is shot from a balcony in the Elysian Hotel in the Gold Coast. I liked the shadow in this so I went monochrome to really push it out.

The cairn-like pile of stones has a small tray of grit on it. Grouse are "fed" grit to aid digestion.

This week one of our assignments for my class with Dave was to photograph rust. So I walked down to Alhambra and took lots of photos on the way and this is how it went:
"Ummm, excuse me, we were wondering what you were taking pictures of?"
"Rust."
"Why? Do you work for the city?"
"No, I'm in a photography class and our assignment is to take photos of rust."
"Oh... where do you go to school? The Art Institute?"
"Well, I'm actually a medical student at USC. I'm doing photography on the side."
"They have photography at medical school!?"
"No. I'm taking an online course."
"Oh! Like a community college course? So do you get credit for that?"
"Well, no, actually we don't even get graded. We just turn in the assignments for each week."
"Ummm... OK. Why would you do that?"
*sigh* "I've got to go home. Sorry."
Next time I go out, I'm going to tape a sign to my back that says "I'm an artist, leave me alone." LOL!!
2. Grit - Show us your rust, your dirt, your slime, your flaking paint, your broken glass. You get the idea.

Black and White Photography - True Grit. Shot with a Canon Mark lll DSLR but extensively post-processed using iPhone photo apps. Probably falls under the realm of Digital art rather than iPhone art but I often have my feet into both worlds. So sue me.
A pair of Bearded Tits 'feeding' on grit during their period of diet change. Apparently many bird species that eat tough vegetable matter need to swallow grit to grind the ingested material to pulp before digestion can take place. Sounds very similar to my own culinary skills.
Millstone Grit is the name given to any of a number of coarse-grained sandstones of Carboniferous age which occur in the Northern England. The name derives from its use in earlier times as a source of millstones for use principally in watermills. Geologists refer to the whole suite of rocks which encompass both the individual sandstone beds and the intervening mudstones as the Millstone Grit Group.
These rocks extend northwards through the South Pennines of Lancashire and West Yorkshire and westwards into the Forest of Rossendale and West Pennines and the Forest of Bowland, also in Lancashire. At the Yorkshire Dales they cover the south-east edge, but north of the Craven Faults, due to weathering, they form only cappings to separate hills
