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.

I've taken a few photos of this old relic but on this particular morning a very heavy fog rolled in and I had to pull over and get a few.
Taken at Hare's Gap, on the northern side of the Mourne Mountains. This metal box sits at a disused quarry. I have no idea what the purpose of the box is but its been siiting here rusting for as long as I remember.
Found on the long closed and abandoned J&W Milling. It dealt in Purina Chows as well as other products and services.

This is a project that includes items which have been useful in the past and likely favorite for their owners. Now they have become useless and rusty, but still fascinating, because of the memories they bring and the stories that hide beneath their rust
You can see the complete project here:
Exploring Monterey as part of the Bay Area Rediscovery Project, we discovered Loulou's Griddle in the Middle. You seriously cannot fathom how big the pancakes are--they are bigger than the plates! Nor can you understand how nice and welcoming the owners are. While you wait, you can walk along the wharf, where we saw dolphins feasting on anchovies (potentially), leading one local to state that he had never seen anything like that in the 40 years he's lived in Monterey. So that seemed special.
