Thames Path at Ewen. The wind pump was used to pump water from the River Thames for agricultural crops. However, the wind vanes have collapsed and hang below the water storage tank, which is rusting away
This picture was taken next to Scargill reservoir, Norwood, Yorkshire. There are interesting prefabricated buildings there, now abandoned and falling into decay.
I've cut in hard on the original composition of the shot to get the picture here (which you can kind of tell, and I would have preferred the resolution to have been sharper, but never mind). It was the simplicity of the colours and the composition, the orange rust and green reflected in both the rusty chubb lock and the surrounding wood that attracted me to this edited version.

Light, shadow, colour, rust, pattern and texture - all brought to you courtesy of time and tide. Literally.
I picked this one for visual interest and uniquness. The color and texture seems to pop. This a macro of a section of my fire pit cover.
Rust is an iron oxide, a usually reddish-brown oxide formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the catalytic presence of water or air moisture. Rust consists of hydrous iron(III) oxides (Fe2O3·nH2O) and iron(III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO(OH), Fe(OH)3), and is typically associated with the corrosion of refined iron.
Given sufficient time, any iron mass, in the presence of water and oxygen, could eventually convert entirely to rust.

Rust Fly, (also called Carrot Fly), Psila merdaria.
Length 8 mm.
May to August.
There are two species which are very similar - Psila fimetaria and Psila merdaria. P. fimetaria has the third antennal joint darkened on the outer side at the base of the arista, and the hairs beneath the second antennal joint longer; whereas P. merdaria has the third antennal joint larger but without darkening at the base of the arista on the outer side, and hairs beneath the second antennal joint shorter.
Found in various habitats but often in areas of lush vegetation and amongst the crops that they target when ready to lay eggs.
Larvae live in the roots, bulbs and non-woody stems of plants.

Actually my second choice for Macro Mondays "holes" theme. My first choice, also on my photostream, did not meet the criteria. The entire hole was not visible.
